Anything other than thread...




I really like the work of Beatrix Potter. Her accurate drawings of animals and plant life really strike me as beautiful. She uses some of my favorite colors and content. This weaving was made from yarn, twine, paper, and rope. I think it still conveys Potter's style.

We Us


This piece was started in high school as a collaborative piece. Sean (my main man) and I have worked on it randomly over the past couple years. It will always be a work in progress I think.

Loosely based on Post Secret

Remembrance by Maya Angelou

Your hands easy
weight, teasing the bees
hived in my hair, your smile at the
slope of my cheek. On the
occasion, you press
above me, glowing, spouting
readiness, mystery rapes
my reason

When you have withdrawn
your self and the magic, when
only the smell of your
love lingers between
my breasts, then, only
then, can I greedily consume
your presence.

The First, Finally

i'm not much for talking verbally, so maybe this will be a way to get some of my thoughts out mostly so i can see them. i want to find out what i really like. what is it that draws people to certain characteristics? what is beautiful and what is real? why do we do the things we do? who wires our psychology? why is the sky blue and all that jazz? i'm just thinking about things.
