We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to bring you my latest listening obsession – Aural Vampire:

It always happens. Springtime rolls around and my thoughts turn to frilly desserts; lightly textured pastel cakes with lemons and berries and cream. So it’s not surprising that I found myself baking strawberry cupcakes. In particular Sprinkles’ Strawberry Cupcakes I thought the pureed strawberries had such a beautiful color View at Picasa Strawberry PureeOLYMPUS OPTICAL [...]

Spring always seems to bring change. Snow melts and the earth starts to thaw and the green pushes up and it seems like we all start to awaken a bit. Birds singing and bringing the stirring of flight and freedom and movement. “Winter’s on the wing it’s a fine spring morn…” one of my favorite [...]

.: Luna :.

August 25, 2009

My latest fairy doll is Luna, she is a fairy of the moon, of the water, of dreams, of the subconscious, of symbols and mystery. One NSFW photo ahead: I sculpted her with a little iridescent clay mixed in, so if you turn your head just so and the light flickers you see a bit [...]
