I wanted a subject matter that I was intimately connected with, so if not "me" then my studio. For a while this blog was the front page of this site, but at a certain point I needed it to be more of a journal and what I was writing about did not seem well suited to being an introduction to my work. view project     sink or swim 9/1/10 - present The third iteration of keeping the 365day project; this one is made up of daily cell phone snaps.
