Random note

I was listening a record I didn't listen for a long time -
Then I knew this album was such modern Jazz inspired.


































When I was working,
and I realized this is not only a work, kind of meditation for me too.

Coffee,book and..




















If I want to get new inspirations, usually go to book stores or go for a walk.
I went to downtown, had some coffee and fig+blackberry tart at Vancouver art gallery cafe.
After the coffee, first I went a second hand bookstore and found Araki Nobuyoshi's book called sentimental journey .
I was planning to go for a walk around more before I found the book but changed my mind, just went straight to home because I wanted to read it a.s.a.p.
The book is about his life story until he lost his wife.













Colours

Most I like about summer is fresh veggies and fruits - fun to cook, their colours are amazing.

Blueberries from a farmer's stand.

Salad, with the beets and water cress, cranberry goat cheese and nuts.

Touring galleries

I like to take a gallery tour.
The other day, I went to granville street,
at Equinox gallery, I found a Marcel Dzama's work! I like his dark fantasy paintings.
I also found interesting paintings - I enjoyed Mary Pratt's series of fruits.

At a Public market 2

I helped my friend's booth again for two days and was little excited, cause our booth was next to Susan Cain.
She makes dolls, I saw her works at Circle craft and since then, I became her fun.
Her booth was like a little theatre with full of her magical dolls.





Got a sign!

We went Ariel pink's haunted graffiti show at biltmore, it was a good show.
My boy friend got his sign on a frisbee!

Chairs!

I like chairs.
If I had a million dollars and a big house, ll collect them.
Sometimes I go to a store called Inform to satisfy my soul.
They have amazing chair selections.
Cheers for chairs!

Arakimentari




















I watched Arakimentari, which is documentary film about Japanese photographer, "genius" Araki's works.
You 'll think his works are scary erotic photographs when you first see them, if you watch this film, you can find his charming character and his love on every photos.
I thought he doesn't care people called his works "porno graph" or "art", he loves taking photographs and enjoys his work all the time.
He loves taking photographs, but most he loves is his wife, even she died long time ago.
Very inspiring film.

Founding

I often find something at alley ways.
My beautiful red table and some interiors at home are from there too.
Few days ago, I found Jade plants!
They started to be soggy already then but still look great, I took them home and
planted.
Now they are getting better - I'm looking for a planter or planter cover.
