It’s fair to say that I love my work. [Some people might suggest it would also be fair to say that I’m a filthy, antisocial art hermit, but we won’t listen to them, no.] Painting, drawing, writing, shooting – all of it, love. But making time for actual lifestuff has become a vital aspect of my existence over the past two years. I’m increasingly fascinated with the idea of superior time-management – of finding my ideal balance between work and life and uninterrupted time to be filled with reading, exercise, movies, meditation and whatever else I might want that day. I’m still too busy to journal, for the most part, so I’m taking more care to otherwise document. Here is a resulting collection of non-work moments, people and things that made me happy over the past week or so.
Sunny weekend mornings with A and a house that’s finally in order after a month of sick and busy.
Micron and her new observation deck atop a cabinet.
Vivka and
her tiny Tesla.
New Lung Ta flags – a set of three sent in a care package from Tibet.
Hilarious party times that end up in LA Weekly.
And, of course, 4AM Denny’s photoshoots with Clint Catalyst.
The Criterion edition of Videodrome.
Night wine [and rare filet mignon, not pictured] with friends.
I love reading your blog, it amazing how much your life has impact in me. You inspire me.
You always have, and alwas will.. you are full of creativity.

*have a great weekend
Thank you, Gini, that’s very gratifying to read. Would being antisocial together cancel things out, thus making us social?
Enjoy your weekend, too!
You inspire me too.
I love your blog, you’re one of the persons who push me to create, to be alive, not to sleep.
Thanks. Bisous

(sorry for my bad American/English – I’m French)
i adore your sitting room.
Next time I am in LA, you, Clint, & I must have a night out and about.
Off topic… You know a lot of really good looking people.
The work-life balance is such a tough one. i’m on the WORK upswing of that this year (with most of the people i want to spend any LIFE with not in Miami alongside me…) in hopes I can enjoy more LIFE later on, and then you know, balance the two when I can get to a decent place.
But, not too long from now, you know, life is short or something like that.
Love your off-time photos!
Wait…so the Criterion edition of Videodrome looks like the VHS of the movie…from the movie?
If that made sense, and is true, it’s my new favorite packaging EVER.
