some things are better art than anything i've seen done by 'artists' in a long time... like. oooof. this.

saved my life
hi internets-friends. i missed you.
can you believe that it is mid-november? i can't. christmas is SO SOON! i was looking at concerts online, and saw a show listed for november 1st and took out my daytimer to write it down... and only then remembered that november 1st is over, silly!
there is much to be done before the christmas times. secret present-things. and some working-things. and baking-things and so much more. and for sarah and danny et al. there is a lot of learning and examing to be packed into the next few weeks. it'll be great! let's all not get sick, yeah?! yeah!!
anyways. i'm excited. super excited and pumped. for home. and snow. and baby declan who is barely even a baby anymore! when do we have to start calling him a toddler? can't he just be a baby forever? sigh. i guess we're going to need another hooper-baby soon? huh? guys? anyone??
okay well. in the last few weeks. there has been a pile more live music. there was a bar-concert where a law-friend's girlfriend played viola in a bluegrass-edged rock band. there was the wacky art-music-festival-show (part one of four!!) that introduced me to DIANA (and thus carmen elle and thus army girls...). holy mother of pearl that was fun. like all the best most funny bits of art school rolled up into one with sparkly 6 inch heels on. then there was tafelmusik with a mozart and friends program that reminded me of con hall shows and home and growing up a suzuki-ite. then army girls (as introduced above) in the middle of the week in a bar that was giving out free tacos to celebrate... something.
and there were a million (or three or four?) other parties and events. art shows. wine. dancing. moustaches. hamilton. so much joy and the holiday season hasn't even kicked in! how many times over can i say i love my life like crazy before it starts to sound like gibberish? 2012 is really pulling out all the stops as the year comes to an end. if the world does indeed explode or whatever on december 21st, at least it will have given one hell of a last hurrah. hearts abounding, hearts for days.
enough chatter. here's some army girls for you. this girl kicks butt on stage. reeeeeaaaaally good guitaring, charming as hell vocals and banter, and some solid stage-posing to boot. mad love.
i hope you're all wrapped up in goodtimes and warmth too, internets. happy monday!!

there you are
about erdem i will say:
*eye flutter eye flutter eye flutter*
*sigh*
i'm thinking a lot about veils, lace, sheer, and covering. that which is there and that which is covered but obvious and that which is obscured completely and lost underneath. i'll get into it maybe another time... in an art-ier talk. but. yes. there is something big in that for me. there is that and it is circling around in my head and heart.

points
this is a big one. lots of images. z spoke and zac posen. zac gets 18 million bonus points for the models he uses and the way 'he' crops the shots. so suited to the clothes. such a great little narrative for each collection. delicious. let's get to it! (the red dress? the third image? that is for you, emma.)

glaze and scumble
i feel like this resort season is fighting to get me to paint... this christopher kane is so painterly-fantastic. those brown-pink roses. they are something. the crackle and the light hidden underneath. the way that oils can be at once opaque and transparent. okay! i hear you, resort! i'm working on it...
