Frank Gehry is my god.
LOVE HIM OR HATE HIM- he stands as an inspiration for unleashing architecture from its prior restraint and giving it life by in my opinion giving it movement. His buildings have heart- they have passion. the cleveland clinic lou ruvo center for brain health Something GENIUS. UNIQUE. GO FORTH | DARE TO BE BOLD |

Raging against the DEATH of the CREATIVE SPARK- ART IS THE WEAPON
What I want has changed slightly and morphed as needed but one remains clear- regardless of my age- and that would be the wish to be an ARTIST. My first love was the Girl with the Pearl Earring by Vermeer-. The moment I came across her in my grandmothers living room I knew... and although it has taken some time for me to admit to others that I am in fact an artist, a painter of form...
My sister Callie sent me this a statement from My Chemical Romance and there words and passion as captivated me | inspired me |
"We are a generation told not to try too hard. The world is going to shit, so why break a sweat? We are reminded daily not to trust our gut or follow our hearts, your dreams are unattainable and unrealistic... the band almost fell victim to this "just good enough" mentality and would have never been able to forgive ourselves.
Art is the Weapon.
Your Imagination is the Ammunition.
Stay Dirty, and Stay Dangerous.
Create and Destroy as you see fit.
Embrace your Originality.
The Aftermath is Secondary.
You can and should do Anything.
Love what you do and who you truly are. Be willing to die for it. If you are true to yourself, you can never go wrong."
So the question or really the challenge : Embrace | Challenge | YOU CAN DO ANYTHING...

BRAIN VOMIT Remembering the Artistry in Design
Amazing week- of realizations but the first I was pumping gas yesterday: there was a man on the other side of the pump he asked me if I liked my PT Cruiser. "Why of course she is a great little trooper. But a lot of other people don't like it." "Well he said "It doesn't matter what other people like, what matters is if YOU LIKE IT."
WOW.
Yes I would like to believe I make decisions that are not dependent upon the opinions or thoughts of others, but in a way all of our opinions and thoughts are based on the existence of other thoughts and opinions...it is this continuous cycle...AMAZING. Just think about it..
"Art is a place. Place is environment. Environment is motivation. Motivation is ARTWORK." Merim Abani
"Don't think of it as architecture think of it as painting a composition." E. S.
The Art of Story Telling
Extreme Beauty. The body Transformed. Human Form.
"It's part of zen saying, try to remember the rest." L. F.

THE CIRCLES LIVE
The TC is now home to a few of the DIFFA Circles- I found them sitting on the floor- near the wood- picked them up and placed them upon the table- urban decay I realized takes on many forms and what is magical not only about the DIFFA installation and the circles original installation RAW EXPOSER- the notion and concept remains consent- the evolution | the transformation | the interconnection between all elements | everything is dependent and builds on another. MAGIC
Products for a Cause
Have been in love with the FEED project http://www.feedprojects.com/
BRILLIANT | The notion that buy purchasing a product a certain amount of money contributes to bettering the world...

KEEP YOUR CURIOSITY FRESH
Together we can conquer the world. The realization keep the childhood mentality. Laugh. Be Curious. Dare to Color Outside the Lines. Don't lose your muchness...
As an interior designer- or an environmental designer a seeker of exploration of form in both the 3rd dimension and now a growing interest in the 2D...we must not limit ourselves to the preconceived notions of what a interior designer is (a decorator) I think not. We must take it to the next level- Expand. Create. Innovate.
