More new work:

The following images were taken by me for a friend with the intention of eventually being transformed into textile designs and patterns. Can't wait to see what she does with them!

New work: Images from the farmhouse

Being the overly nostalgic person that I am, I took on a project photographing the interior of my grandfathers farm house which has remained fairly untouched over the past 20 years. I am very pleased with the outcome.

Photo opening tonight at Papa B Studios featuring eight female contemporary artists. Props to Olga!

Event last night was meh. Two free drinks, a flip through the new zine, a snapshot, and a few mashups later...all I really wanted to do was go home and download salt-n-pepa and deee lite.

So I did.

Back in NYC. Overpopulated, muggy, eccentric, marvelous NYC.

To kick off my return, miss gabi has linked me to this lovely little Powerhouse swaray happenin over at Mansion New York on Thursday...

The longer I am in this fabulous place that is New York City, the less time I seem to have to keep up with this blog. I don't know how people do it!

Between working, networking, socializing and time spent on the subway, it leaves little time for much else.

Began attending a monthly photo meet-up of all female assistants/young budding photographers. Good motivator to keep myself shooting every month.

Things may soon be changing on the job front...more on that later.

Mom came to visit last weekend. Aside from doing and seeing everything that makes you a complete tourist (a new yorker makes for the best tourist guide btw), we attended the Trec party where she met my photo assistant homies and drank for free, joined Richard for drinks at the elite Pego Club, which became a 4am night for mom (she was the one insisting to stay out), and had a fantastic brunch at Superfine in dumbo. Quite the first New York experience for mom, if I do say so myself.

Tomorrow I will be going home to Minneapolis for a full 10 days. No work (well maybe just a little), no networking, no schmoozing, no crowds, no noise. I'm looking forward to it.

love it...
