Are you asking me out on a date, Shaun? I mean, not that I'm interested, but I could, you know, maybe find the time if it were something low-key and casual. Like, you know, if that was maybe something you would want to do? Print available at 20x200.

Lazy Summer Day

I'm looking forward to reading the latest issue of Mankind Mag, which was created and edited by Erin Loechner. The magazine is an extension of Erin's good taste which can also be seen at Design for Mankind. If previous issues are any indication, then the lazy issue will be packed with gorgeous photos, interviews and tons of artists I'll be pleased to (virtually) meet. Let the summer reading begin!

Seafoam green and ocean blue. Photographs to calm you down and encourage serene slumber. After spending so much of the weekend in the sun, I'm exhausted. Looking forward to crawling into a very comfortable bed.

In honor of independence day, I bring you these red, white and blue beauties. Will be busy this weekend catching up with my Mom by the pool, at a picnic on Saturday and visiting my brother on Sunday. The holiday weekend starts tomorrow, so enjoy!
