sunday paper




designs for paper/textile that I've been working on ... inspired by burglar bars. maybe I should call it BARseries ... ? no real name as of yet for this collection, still working on it. I think I like the fact that its all grayscale ... a wrapped gift can have a huge, colorful bow on a monotone backdrop (shown).

bricks, bricks and more bricks






which one doesn't belong?


(hint: alcatraz, san francisco; mariscal mine, big bend tx)

homage to polaroid



... sad to see them go.

I will miss the instant gratification (of the physical, not the digital), the subdued colors, and the white border.
