the cards

I created this project actually a few weeks ago. There’s more to it besides a deck of cards. This was just easier to write about and I can fill in the blanks later. I’ve always been a romantic at heart but haven’t exactly found someone worthy of a full blow project. Sure, I’ve done really romantic gestures but this one (if it pans out) should be one for the books. Every day I see her, she will get a card. I created this in my head accounting for days off at work and it should be right around Halloween that she gets all the cards. With how impatient we both are, it might be sooner however, for once in my life I hope not! Everything is strategically mapped out and I need to stick with the plan. On the days she gets the cards, I’ll take note on here what she gets and why. Basically, the cards won’t be explained in order. You’ll get them the way she did except now she can read the reasons behind them and why. Each card is special. Some will have hidden messages and meaning, some will be straight forward. Skipping to the end also won’t help because I’ll be holding the last card or cards depending on how I feel until this is read. Bummer right? Yeah, I’m an ass but it will be worth waiting. I promise

the Girl

I can’t begin to express what this girl does to me. In one month, I’ve become completely preoccupied by her. The way she moves, the way she speaks, the way her laugh makes me instantaneously laugh out loud, the way she pops around the corner when she hear me talk about her to someone and the look she gets when we try to make each other jealous for fun. I seem to be the only person that loves the sound of her voice. It’s my favorite soundtrack of the day. I’ll get so lost inside listening to her speak that all I can do is smile. I think to myself how lucky I am to have the attention from someone so pure and beautiful. Everything I know, I love. Everything else I want to know, I know I’ll love. When you know, I guess you know. She’s the one I can’t with everything I have left in me, I can’t let slip away. Picture your true love. Do you have that person in mind? I guarantee mine is better. Just sayin…

prologue

Growing up, I loved watching the Olsen twins’ movies. I’ve seen them all and “It Takes Two” is one of my favorites. Girl meets guy, they fall in love and it’s the whole “can’t eat, can’t sleep, reach for the stars world series kind of thing.” I never thought that kind of love was real. The movies make everything seem so easy! Well, let me tell you what. Love isn’t an easy thing to find! I’ve been in a few relationships, some good, some bad and everything in between. My last epic fail was deciding it would be smart to get married to a girl that I had doubts about from the start. We had nothing in common and completely different outlooks on life. Geez Taylor, you’re an idiot! Let’s save that story for another day, okay? This story is a better one worth telling. I understand this quote finally! Everything makes sense and maybe true love does exist. Ready to join me on the 52-card adventure? Only two people know about this project ahead of time and gave me the green light. I had to first ask permission at work (this was in fact very tough to do behind her back) Babe I’m sorry I needed to cover my ass for this and make sure every single step is protected. I had to lay it down on the line that I’m so in love with someone and I can’t get transferred just yet. I need to set up the whole project first. Once my boss gave me the okay and is sworn to secrecy that she will NEVER admit to anything except pick on me day in and day out, and I told a coworker that understands the whole gay side of life which is nice to talk to her about it all. She too plays a role in this that will later be identified. She told me it’s so cute an all for the idea. I’m scared, nervous, excited and always smiling. Why? Because I’m thinking about her. All day, every day. Shit my palms are sweaty just thinking about telling people all of this! Here goes nothing…

#52queens collection of works. It all started with 4 sketches and involved into 4 finished pieces. I was originally going to do them all in larger format , but I think smaller is better for so many #reasons
