Movement. Passion. Mystery. Sensuality. A few of my favorite things to photograph.

Last night I dreamt I caught in a sandstorm. I wasn't afraid of it and when it was over I was in a foreign place. The chaos, the unknown...it all felt right and I was excited for it. Photo x @alinamendoza

The object of art is not to make salable pictures. It is to save yourself… The thing of course, is to make yourself alive. Most people remain all of their lives in a stupor. The point of being an artist is that you may live.

Sherwood Anderson (b. September 13, 1876) on art and life in a magnificent letter of advice to his teenage son as the boy headed to art school. (via explore-blog)

I love thee not...

let me count the ways.

Last night I dreamt that you told me you didn’t love me and then proceeded to tell me all the reasons why.

Talk about a wake up call.
