"ODDLY ENAMORED OF p.2"



this is an ongoing project, saved as separate installments or "pages". i may go days or months before i collect enough images to add to the page, so the text below is from the original "oddly enamored of" post...

"...a great hat can change your day."

"oddly enamored of..."

i read these words years ago, but cannot give the author credit. don't know if i read them in a magazine, a book, postcard, on a cereal box, billboard, who knows...but the point is, these words have stuck with me for years. i scribbled them down with a red marker on a ripped-out sheet of notebook paper and stuck it to the wall of the studio where i can see it often.


a visual cue, a reminder to stop and ponder. and so, the images in this section are visual cues as well, prompting me to consider where i came from, stops i've made along the way, and to consider also the humor and sometimes awkwardness of the on-going journey...but always the beauty (sometimes shouting, sometimes whispering) of it all.
