Dark, nebulous, gauzed over with doom ... how could I not like a picture that is like the world found at the bottom of a bottle of absinthe? By Ieva Jansone.
C is friends with the fashion stylist Rebekah Roy (left in both pics above) ... one of those people who personify calm and smiling success. On her blog she presents glamour in this very sincere, straightforward way ... whether she's taking pictures of people on the street , talking about stain removers , her favourite videos , or attending some glittering party . One minute she's ruminating on hair extensions, and in the next she reveals how she's been featured on the Vogue UK site. A real disarmer and charmer (and this without meeting her yet, although I feel like I know her because we both did our time in Winnipeg). * * * * * Coming home from Russia, we did many bad things. ; mixed media on canvas, 10 x 10 inches. In my own life, the glamour is wholly imagined. * * * * * witches, smoke ; mixed media on canvas, 10 x 10 inches. My second go at this one, and for some reason I'm painting a lot of smoke lately (note to self: tell C that I want to be cremated). *
nice shot

ReplyDeleteI will keep these words with me and use them when necessary. I think they will be necessary often.
jeez I need to get out into the sun.
It's certainly very atmospheric. There are quite a few structures like this in East London, which you can see on from the train.
