70's just like me......

I found this double v collared vintage brown leather trench with the belt!!!!!I love it.....needs a tiny bit of TLC but damn .........

I am sure it is early 70's or a little earlier.....

riding the waves ..........

It's fucking insanity around here.........

I think the treadmill at the gym cringes when I show up .....


Eyes so blue
so fucking
blue today.

Giant raindrops flow
stinging , staining faces.
hot and salty....

THOSE WORDS........what words....silence......

Hot water and soap
maybe....

crisp scent of stems
petals erase the stench of hurt

peppermint tea
freshens the lips that have kissed
dark emptiness in the past...

Overcome.........

and my little dog too.............................

ALIVE.......LIVING

The damn has broken................ Painting again.... Floral Artistry with an edge , and frigging inspiration is everywhere ................IDS this afternoon ....YES!!!!
I am going to kick some ass today........... wish me luck!!!!!

Feel like dancing......

I am feeling the flow bigtime....
what a relief....
I surrender ...

Roar....

Just one of those days........

The Rosebush ..... ( Below)

I can't wait to be gardening again ..... this is the rose bush I planted in 2000

when my beloved grandmother passed ......

she was my real mum ,she taught me so much and she truly was my best friend .....



I owe my domesticity to her........my creative spirit flows from her love....she was very independant and strong and creative.... always cleaning,cooking,decorating ....... creating and entertaining,,,she used to do ceramics .

I was blessed and fortunate that she was so willing to allow us to be apart of that ....she taught weekly classes at home in the basement I remember setting out the trays of food the cakes and the tea cups.....

I remember always getting my own little projects too..... she had her own kiln and would fire the stuff herself.... the transformation of an object that has been painted after it is fired is astounding ...fascinating to me....



I miss the tales of my father growing up in England and the stories about her nursing days........ I miss the custard and pies........ funny.... I miss her more than I miss my mother ....

what now???? oh ya work!!!

Flowers anyone.......

Naked

That bead of sweat a single one....

rolling down my back.......

exposed .......naked , energy

say my name...............say my name

take me there...

my breath leaves my body hot and sweet...

dreams painted with words....

wicked thoughts and

sensuality ....

melted, rolling divine.

hearts undone.........

A reminder

As we sit and prepare for yet another snow storm
REMEMBER SUMMER IS COMING!!!

Bliss

....... my bliss is somewhere I feel it..............

So much snow.....

There is so much snow ........It looks beautiful .......I might even make a snow angel later.................. :)

Happiness is...

Rockin Out
I am in an awesome mood, exausted & creative, working on some stuff and Have Rage Against The Machine Pumped ....... Oh YA Baby..

I almost gave up on working today...

it's so cold....

It is insanly cold minus 28 or more with the wind chill.....my studio is freezing ...completely making me not want to go out there ..............I am sleeping by the fire tonite well lately most nites ......

Anyways Today was.......stonecold.... but I feel warmer now............

Now just two things a smoke and sleep....

photography....obsession....

So I don't know if this is genetic or just contagious and I caught the illness from my Father...in anycase .... Back in the day my mother was a model...my father was /is a photographer...

...my father was introduced to her as a Photographer and the rest is history... here I be....

My father taught us about flicking and clicking whenever and appreciating and using lights available to soften the shots kleenex taped over a flash for effect etc....lol low tech and brilliant on occasion...

To improvise and look at things from many angles not the intended way...
Maybe that is where most of my Ideas come from I have a slew of shots

I want but they may always just remain an intellectual idea

not an actual shot...there is one about

Humanity versus money

I am dieing to do it's a nude but the idea it is a good one and thats all I will say .........................I still might attempt it.....


I am neither a photographer or a model although I have done a little of both...at 5.5 this chiquita did not make the cut........................

I've Been thinking....

I owe it to myself to get away for a few days... I would love a sun vacation ....drinks ,reading .....the beach and no one who knows really who I am..... just a girl ....

But I would also love to hop a train and just ride....I wonder what it would be like to sleep with the clickety clacking under my back... I wonder would I sleep or just dream day dreams the whole time...

Either way I am taking a break soon for a few days ...... what ever I end up doing It will involve some good books good wine and a whole lotta nothing in particular...

Red panties...For Luck???

Apparently so......

Yesterday was the official Chinese
New Year the beginning of the year of the Rat ...... For what it's worth thats me and yep........ damn right I wore red panties for good luck... ........I'm not messing around...........Happy New Year.



Good Night All ...... Sweet Dreams.............................................

sleeping alone ...

sleepy and resting
Sleeping alone is not so bad ....

I need a new bed a smaller one, king size just swallows me whole...

A little new lighting would not hurt either ...oh well soon ....

working hard...

Today was crazy busy.......
I did finally eat though around 10:30pm

I have allot of work to do over the next day ... new accounts and finalizing presentations .I just have to be fearless and keep my head down...work hard and then hopefully I will be able to get away.....

I need the sand between my toes and the hot sun on my skin so badly...

Photo is flowers 3 types of dahlias from my own garden last Aug...

I can't wait to get all covered in dirt and be sore from digging...

will be another late night...

Late cause thats what I do.....for some reason...all my life ..
Today we got nailed with yet another wicked snow storm...
Hmm possible playground...the lights in parking lots & from car lights so pretty and the snow adds to it .....


Anyways silly girl went out in it of course ...
I can handle the roads ...it's the other drivers shh....

Perfect day no one was at the shops but us and my daughter leaves for europe in less than a month so we got some new luggage , a party dress ...new pj's.... and I got some pretty little things....too ".) but mostly it was fun and I enjoyed spending time watching my beauties be girly girls...

Photos are from today...

the freakiest of things...

Doing my usual reading marathons...
I came across this blog of an Irish Man talking about his visit
to St Michan's To see real "naturally mummified corpses " Incase you are curious here is a link to the photog web site rummage around you'll find it...it looks like a family of four... http://www.davewalshphoto.com/ yikes....

I have this thing about death...well the body after death...
If I want you to touch me ...you'll have the opportunity while I am still in it...
I know we all have our hang ups , I certainly do...
but when I'm gone I want to be burried as soon as possible ....
do not disturb will be On my casket...
Something about taking pictures and touching the dead while they sleep is
....well feels perverted ...undignified.

I just visited the above link...no luck on the mummies photo I'll repost a better link but...his photos are beautiful none the less.
here is anotherhttp://www.blather.net/blather/2007/08/the_mummies_of_saint_michans.html link to try

went for a long drive...

I took myself somewhere special ...

Out to the Devils Pulpit... the view of the city ...
the golden horseshoe in the black of night...

I love it there the beauty is ... well it just is...

As I clicked along every curve of the road and up every hill I had Heart cranked as loud as it would go.....I wish I could sing like that ..

Another shot from#2 uv ...

just breathing ...

inhaling , thinking my thoughts

damn well makes me ache ...

Photo from uv series.. shoot #2

carbonated thoughts...

Hot sultry suffering
staring up...through
carbonated thoughts, fizzing...hard.

Unzipped sensuality beckons.
Breath alone ...light intertwined
perfect whispers one... burn lips in dark .

Swaying incredible
wanting driving divine,
melted ,electric pure.

Drinking them in ... dancing snags
fretting ...unleashed beasts.

Angels lul ...shhh
soul lightning wishes
felt perfect.
