The Goldilocks of art
I firmly believe that nothing makes a space yours like art. While I generally take a little time to settle in and feel things out, I try to get art on the walls within the first few months of moving into a new place – and no, I don’t worry too much about putting holes […]
Waking up
“If a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it’s as though I’ve neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up.” –Richard Avedon I came across this quote in a photography magazine a few weeks ago and, like some things are prone to do, it has […]
