RP/Encore

I'm currently obsessed with these wearable pieces of artwork by Reid Peppard. All of their pieces used in RP/Encore are made from creatures that are victims of road kill, pest control and natural death. My favorite is probably the bow tie with the rat head attached to it.

City Magazine and Cole Mohr

I really like this quote by model Cole Mohr for City magazine.

"My inspiration to become a model was the fact that I was grabbed on the street and I was homeless and only an idiot would turn down the fantastic and magical world of fashion. You would have to be brain dead not to want to be a cheap whore for money!"

Back to school anxiety

Going back to school today was something I've been looking forward to for a while now. Finding out I have a year and a half left before I graduate was the highlight of my day. There is so much to look forward to this semester! Today I was pretty much called stupid by my painting teacher for taking more than two studio art classes. It's not the first time I've taken three studios and a regular class on top of it. In fact, ever since I moved to UNT that's all I've done. It has been a really intense journey but it's halfway done. Anyway, today was the second episode for the sixth season of Project Runway. One of the contestants for this season is a recent UNT fashion design graduate and she won the second challenge. I am definitely rooting for her.

Scott Wade's Dirty Art Gallery

Probably the cheapest way to make some massive works of art. You'd probably have to go off-roading to get things prepped up.

Mark Jenkins: Street Installations

I literally stumbled on this website using the Stumble website. Thanks roommate! The first photo of the dad and his girl almost avoiding the "man" sitting down is priceless.

ANTM Cycle 12 in Denton?

The second day I was back in Denton I went to my friends going away party and saw two great beauties from America's Next Top Model Cycle 12. I went up to both London and Allison, snapped some photos, had a short conversation and walked off happy as can be.

Apparently Allison Harvard is moving to Denton, definitely looking forward to that. Future muse? Possibly...

One of my favorite shots of the two of them for an ANTM photo shoot.

Back in Denton

Well I'm finally back in Denton and it feels good to be all moved in. While I was on my way the worst happened, one of my boxes flew out from the truck and I did not notice until much later. All of my newly purchased products for my new apartment, cologne, shampoo, vintage cameras etc. all gone! Don't know what else was in there but I'm sure there is some desert rodent smelling like Viktor & Rolf's Antidote.

The second day I was back we stopped at a small festival going on in Highland Park next to Lewisville lake and I captured some hot air balloon shots.
