This is literally the happiest I have ever seen this cat! Carlita's finally found balance and realized she likes people now that she's 10 years old. Matt set out a pretty little shaded AstroTurf yard for us on Saturday. I think Carlita loved it more that we did! https://www.instagram.com/p/CEpZ_HcBrrq/?igshid=1bzbx7vwamslc

It's already been almost a year since the Burn! I still have so many stories to tell, but for now let's just admire the show nature puts on every morning out there. What a beautiful, memorable sunrise. ... ... #sunrise #magical #dawn #burningman2019 #rainbowsky #itslikeadream #naturesbeauty https://www.instagram.com/p/CCeXH2VBPT_/?igshid=1ghax32mu26x4

This building in Koreantown has the craziest shell of bars all over it! It creates fascinating visual vibration as you walk by. I feel like they are trying to be invisible but failing dismally because I couldn't tell you anything about the buildings near it. I had to stop to look at this place. LA you so weird. ... ... #cage #visualvibration #yousoweird #losangeles #koreatown #barstothemax #barsonwindows #stripes #blackandwhite #whyyoudothis #idonthateit https://www.instagram.com/p/CCMUWwFBzct/?igshid=1rnfrgsmovjt4

Black paint swipes - this reads to me of speed and control. I love the texture of the paint. ... ... #blackandwhite #painttexture #brushstrokes #swipe #pattern #texture #upclose #paintingdetail https://www.instagram.com/p/CCJ7hxThIA7/?igshid=2mi8oucdsa83

The repetition and precision of this painting installation by Retna really intrigues me. It was at Beyond the Streets. ... ... #repetition #beyondthestreets #retna #blackandwhite #streetart #urbanart #graffiti #freehand https://www.instagram.com/p/CCHTibYhhhE/?igshid=141qchch7ee9b

Two of Seven Magic Mountains - stacks of painted rocks, rock towers if you will, my Ugo Rondinone in the middle of the desert outside Las Vegas. It was going to be a short-term temporary exhibit but it's been there for years now. ... ... #twoofseven #sevenmagicmountains #stackofrocks #rockstack #rockstacking #nevadadesert #rocktower #paintedrocks (at Seven Magic Mountains) https://www.instagram.com/p/CABTf-YhXGd/?igshid=1iwb557cvb0oz

Luxurious, fluffy, striped, neon and rainbow! Could there be anything more perfect for me? I had to work hard not to rub myself all over it. Turns out fabric store owners aren't excited about such things. ... ... ... #plush #luxurious #fluffy #fauxfur #stripes #rainbow #rainbowstripes #neonrainbow #brights #thingofbeauty #iwantit #itwillbemine https://www.instagram.com/p/B_56q3knBIc/?igshid=131lg1nkmuglc

How epically stripy and neon is this photo? We could try to say it was intentional, but clearly this was just a lucky blast of all the lights at Burning Man last year. It was one of the last pictures we caught right before we left that night. ... ... #lightphotography #movinglights #nightlight #neon #stripes #burningman #purple #purplenight #burningman2019 #lucky https://www.instagram.com/p/B_29zIjn5FO/?igshid=an8oa8msq9wk

YUMMY purple and orange slaws! One is a quick Vietnamese pickle of daikon, carrot and red cabbage which is fantastic on banh mi sandwiches or with smoked pork belly. The other is a delicious mayo-free spicy cilantro lime slaw. So delicious and easy! Perfect for Cinco de Mayo. Time for margaritas soon. 🇲🇽 🌮 ... ... #cincodemayo #homemadefoods #homecooking #vietnamesepickle #quickpickle #mayofreeslaw #nomayocoleslaw #purpleandorange #freshfood #cleanfood #spicy #fresh #yummy #brightandfresh https://www.instagram.com/p/B_0tl1iHkY8/?igshid=1qkojdl6c1wia
