Today I turned 31. I'd like to say being 30 was the hardest year of my life. Really, though, I'm not sure it's been any harder than the rest, just a different kind of hard. My goals for 31 are to: (a) Rise Golden Rule all phoenix style from the ashes of financial destitution and mismanagement, (b) Figure out how to make a living on my internal skills, ideas and resources rather than relying purely on stuff to earn money, (c) Prioritize art making, personal wellness, home building, and community fostering, and (c) Learn how the fuck to relax, to enjoy being myself in myself, to decrease chaos making, to bond with nature, and to take good care of myself and my dog. In honor of that today I had a sauna, got a massage, went to therapy and played at the park.

In honor of my birthday and my desperate need for a break, I'll be MIA from Golden Rule goings-on until Sunday when the flip begins for Lahaina Alcantara's July showcase. I would love to say I'll be totally off the work grid, but alas I'll be finishing out some lookbook editing, getting the basement put back together after pulling so much stock for the shoot, getting the newsletter ready, building FaceBook events, and strategizing, strategizing, strategizing about how the fuck to finance us through September. But at lest said activities can happen on my own time, and sans the interruption of telephone and email (the iPhone is disconnected for non-payment and I plan to keep it that way for a bit). See you in a few days, and until then, be well. Xoxo.

hi.
i love the look of these photographs. could i ask you what camera and lenses and flash you were using?

it also appears that you display your photographs on television screens in some cases and re-photograph them? is this true?

great stuff.
