thanks always
what is your dance? if you had wings to fly would you stay or go? in the absence of fear, how do you move?

it is always such a pleasure to create with the ever brilliant rose. which do you like better…? black and white, or color?

modeled for a figure drawing class today for the first time. it was such an interesting experience. challenging for sure to stay still in a pose for 20 minutes at a time (the session lasted four hours). i also felt like “i” didn’t exist. my body was being talked about so clinically by a group of strangers. for example “the light hits the breast in this way” or “the plane of the shou...

“when you’re in This place everyone you look at is your lover. so, being in Love isn’t special. being in love with the universe is ordinary.” it’s what happens when you destroy the barriers preventing you from realizing that everyone is the Beloved.
