Fasting

I recently learned that when fasting from food, your mind thinks clearer. This intrigued me.
Your body is full of so many toxins from sugar and bad food and when you fast from those things and only fill yourself with delicious juices, the toxins are washed out.
I thought deeper into the idea. What about trash t.v.? What about consumerism?
And so, I am fasting. For forever.
I'm not buying clothes for at least one year. I've always said that I want to make my own clothing so why don't I? I'm going through my closet and if there is something there that I don't really need, I'm done with it.
I would much rather buy experiences like concerts that a garment that doesn't actually give me anything other than comfort.
This is not to say that I won't receive gifts of clothing or shop at thrift stores. I don't like the idea of feeding the consumerism monster, and thrift stores such as Goodwill and Salvation Army give to a cause.
I'm doing all this because I want to live an uncluttered life style. I will think more clearly without everything else weighing me down.
Ok bye,

Musical Ties and Wii Fit

I just helped host a Ugly Christmas Sweater party last night and decided to go the "Office Party" route instead. I got the Abecrombie muscle fit shirt at Goodwill for $3 and the suspenders there as well.
I got the glasses at Avalon Exchange in Pittsburgh by trading in some old duds.
Also, my family got a Wii Fit just recently, and all that I can really say is that it's cute and addictive.

Expired Film

Not only did I recently trade out some clothes for geek glasses at Avalon Exchange, but I found a new Polaroid camera at Salvation Army.
It came with a ridiculous instructional booklet.

It also came with film in it...


very expired film.

Happy Christmas,

Who I Am as an Artist

Made this video for a class, it's some of my portfolio, and some rad Wilco and Sigur Ros tunes to move things along.

Thermochromatic Joy

Today I wore my American Apparel Thermochromatic tee. I am still amazed by it and love seeing people's first reaction when they realize how sweet this shirt is.
I wore this yesterday. Once again the shirt//tie//cardigan combo does not fail me.

Bow Tie

This is probably my favorite outfit I wore this week. I like to call it "old man chic"
My woven shirt, Salvation Army cardigan and bow tie, and my moose pin that was a thrift store find as well made me feel very happy.
Love,
