serenity now.
this most amazing little beach is on the way to my studio (and less than 5 minutes from my home). i try to stop here many times a week so that wilma and i can collect our thoughts, soak up some inspiration, and run along the shore. it’s the perfect precursor to a day at the studio, and such a vital part of our routine.

the arch.
the arch is an exquisite site in mexico. it is at the very tip of baja where the sea of cortez meets the pacific ocean. we tried paddle boarding to it one day, but it was EXTREMELY windy and half way there i was practically blown INTO a cruise ship. we decided to sail to it instead. it was spectacular.

thirassia, greece
i bought this beautiful ring in thirassia, greece. i was drawn to the burnt orange color and the simple setting. i always try to buy a small piece of jewelry on my travels. wearing it later seems to bring me back right to the place where it was purchased.

sausalito, california
i LOVE old suitcases and totes. i have a huge collection of them that i have picked up at flea markets + antique stores around the world. this one was the perfect size and shape to contain my many tubes of acrylic paints and brushes. i believe it was an old musical instrument case . . . perhaps a clarinet ?
