Chris and I caught Kusama: At the End of the Universe last weekend at the MFAH by Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama. The exhibit is comprised of two main installation pieces, Love is Calling and Aftermath of Obliteration of Eternity, as well as a series of paintings and a big Kusama sculpture that looks like a pumpkin. Love is Calling Here’s… View Post
Mississippi. The softly sibilant state most often spoken in the shortest span of time. When was the last time you said it without counting in the same breath? My mother’s family is from Mississippi, and for as long as I can remember in our youth we would make a yearly visit to my grandmother and cousins. First in Yazoo City, then… View Post
So… who knew surfing Galveston is looking up? I had no idea that they rebuilt the beach out south of 61st street. Along with the new shoreline comes a fun set of sandbars to learn. Last weekend there was a hurricane in Mexico, so we headed out for some beach time on Sunday. With the hurricane so far away, the… View Post
Day 2 of Float Fest in San Marcos! Chris and I went down pretty early to float the river before the sun climbed to high. But really, the river cools everything off anyway. Floating was so much fun! It’s been a few years since I floated the river, and never with Chris. Just toss your tube in, hop on and… View Post
Float Fest! We went to San Marcos for the music festival on July 16 & 17, and I’m only just now getting around to editing these photos! Float Fest is awesome. You hop in an inner tube, float down the river, and come out right at the entrance to the festival grounds where you can catch live music. This idea is seriously… View Post
“What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside you.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson. While I was editing these photos from Matagorda, my friend and I started doing that thing again, where we start projecting what we would like to be doing in the future. This is usually a really abstract… View Post
These are a few more waves from Matagorda surfing in July. We were able to go out on the jetties and the beach! I caught a few really long waves, and of course Chris caught every one that came along. The waves were long and powerful, if choppy from an offshore wind. When I first went out, it was hard… View Post
We found some Matagorda surf, and sun, on Sunday and Monday. What better way is there to spend a long weekend? We met up with friends, too, so it was in good company. With fireworks. There were waves, sure, but too much wind! When it’s too windy, the waves are choppy like a dishwashing machine. How to begin at the end? This… View Post
“Be at least as interested in what goes on inside you as what happens outside. If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place.” – Eckhart Tolle This weekend I completed Restorative Yoga Training at Joy. The teacher leading the training, Brittany Kraft, talked about how the body has waves that you move with. For example, there’s a… View Post
I made this June Moon Calendar for myself this month, and liked it enough to share it. The design is so obviously drawn from the Free People moon calendar, which was designed by Holly Degan. She does such a great job on the Free People moon calendar collages! I love her moon calendar designs, and just wanted my phone background to feature that same design with… View Post
