Isn’t it a mess? It feels a little surreal now that we’ve got things going. Note to self: dust more often…I’m a little appalled at what I’m finding. Juneau has taken to hiding under the bed in retreat (or perhaps to find our shoes).

Poor Juneau
We did this to her a long time ago, I just happened to find the picture this evening. She actually didn’t seem to mind TOO much. What she will mind is her new living conditions. She has a nice huge yard to run in right now, and will be downgrading to a two foot patch of grass and some bricks. She’s young and will learn to adjust we hope, but it doesn’t stop me from worrying about her. Fortunately we will be within walking distance to a park but I will have to walk her religiously or we’ll both go crazy. Charleston doesn’t really cater to dogs actually, there isn’t a dog park with a fence. We’re hoping she’ll tone down that super excitedness when she sees people because…she’s going to be seeing a lot of people.
And speaking of long lost photo files, I also found this picture …tee hee. The little booger takes his job seriously.

Texture, Form, Repetition
I was just recently browsing art and I came across the mind blowing art of Tara Donovan.
There were oooohs
there were aaaaahhhs
there was drooling.
This is some seriously eye pleasing work! It’s based on a meticulous placement of unexpected object working together in repetition amounting to her organic billowing forms. The three dimensional work can be admired from afar or up close in discoveries of the unique textures that objects have when grouped together. I couldn’t help but to not share:
(for fun you should guess what these are before you view her website)
