So fresh n so cleann

What a productive day. :) I headed into the city to visit some of my favorite concept stores from ICFF. I also checked out the new 2nd location of Little King Jewelry on Lafayette where they feature stylish custom made jewelry. I couldn't resist and treated myself to a cute everyday pendent part of the "jacks collection". It took me back to when my grandpa introduced me to jacks and we would play out in the yard..

 After a full day in Soho/Nolita, headed over to my favorite store to check out some visuals for inspiration and more GOODS. Some sweet finds today-

Love picking up new soaps.

Couldn't choose which one so...

Modern porcelain,

Eye for detail,

Glass & Minerals,

...and the perfect espresso cup.

Lastly, took a visit by my new little new gem that features some of my current obsessions:

Pendent Lamps,

 

Geometric Shapes, 

 

 My biggest obsession, my partner in crime.

Current update

It's 4:08a and I can't sleep.but finished sketching a chair hanging from the wall...contemplating whether or not i should draw it in full scale or small--to draw the whole unit, or just the chair. I suppose the whole point of me getting back into things is to continue practicing. Practice drawing, painting, photographing, arranging, and to continually training my eyes, hands, and ears. My mind needs to be stimulated-- which is why I'm adding courses at NYSID and Mandarian at NYU. I need discipline and experience:: I need knowledge to inspire and influence. I need/want depth and skill to represent my work. These are all things on my "bucket list" to achieve.

What do you want to achieve?
