seeing red

what a beautiful day it has been in london! cold, but the blue sky was there and lots of red visuals to keep me entertained :) i still have quite a bit to do before monday but will be taking it easy as weekends are there for that very purpose... there'll be play and relaxation, that's the plan. are you doing anything interesting this halloween? 
Nigel Peake's work is delightful.
and for those of you wondering what was on my ipod:  somewhere else by Razorlight... oh my, i looove this band!

macavity: typo experiment 1

the first verse of macavity - a poem by T. S. Elliot. i just adore cats, the musical so chose this to work on as there's lots of room for play. this is just my first attempt so there will be lots of changes to come but i'm happy with the journey so far... enjoy the clip of the song here.

london by signs and numbers

oh i love this city! even when it's gray and windy. shooting these was the perfect stress buster for me today... any other recipes? i'm going to need quite a few over the coming weeks. my jaw is currently locked and i can't eat properly. won't even bother going to the doctors as i know what it is... hope you're having better times :)
squared circle pool - another source of stress relief and another distraction, of course...

snail mail delight

after an ultra busy day what better surprise than coming home to find this in my letterbox?!! all the way from the usa from the super talented Steve Loya. the front cover of the zine seems to have been uniquely handrawn and it's actually my favorite drawing: awww the bambis little deers! oh my god, i cannot contain my excitement at the moment!!!! the drawings inside are so detailed and beautifully composed. and i also got a much wanted calligraphy pen (how on earth did he guess that?), a gorgeous polaroid and a 'guardian' card. ohhh gotta go now and enjoy it more little page by little page.
happy monday everyone!
THANK YOU so much Steve! you have made my day a richer and happier one :)
