#making new things

Tried marbling some paper at home today! I am… not very good at this LOL but! In my defence I am not using very high quality materials or tools either.

Regardless, I had fun. And I will reassess my plan to include hand marbled paper in a future bind. I just don’t think my skill in this will do the story justice 😂

Another little thing I did recently was host a styled shoot with my friends. We rallied together (photographer friends, seamstress friend, and me, floral friend) and had one of the best days! We flew through the 2 hours we had at our rental, but were having such a great time we moved to a park to shoot some more.

It was such a great experience to work with friends. Especially as we all try to grow our portfolios and try out new opportunities to be creative.

The dress my friend made was incredible. And my friend who modeled was stunning!!!

This is also the super soft launch of my floral company... that really isn't a business yet, since I don't really want to take on clients this year. But I am trying to explore what is out there for me on my own through floral design. So we will see where it takes me!

For more, here are some links to my friends and I's instagrams

To create something new is a high honor.

The art of want

a pull toward creation

the hesitation as important as intent

the stroke of genius 

of madness

of unintended brushes with destiny

the never-ending urgency 

and mystery

of what comes next.

For anyone feeling alone right now.

The universe is so unexplainably vast, so uncomprehensibly silent but compared to the forever of the it all- the length between stars- a journey in itself of millions sometimes billions of years even for light- is just a stride, our precious little planets brush shoulders as they dance by and most importantly- no matter where you go across this soft little rock, cosmically we're still just a whisper away, we still see the same sky, breathe the same air, and walk the same earth. You are not alone. Even if i've never met you, the grand cosmic confusion that gave you to me, to all of us- is as much art as you are. Whoever you are, wherever you are, you are a child of the universe, made from the same things as stars, kings, dinosaurs and me. You are far too unlikely to happen for no reason, if you don't know why you're here then you will someday. There's no such thing as a coincidence- you are here because you're important and you are still so close and still so loved.
