The French do it Better.

I found this great blog from France that simply posts signage found in France and other European countries, Jules Vernacular. I love how so many signs are handmade or painted directly onto the buildings.

Back in November I did graphics for an independent short film which will be submitted to Sundance Film Festival. I wanted to post some stills from the set of my work in action :) Take a peek and let me know what you think!

Vegan Yum Yum

My new favorite website is http://www.veganyumyum.com/. This blog-esque site reminds me of America's Test Kitchen; for the vegan. The author, Lolo of Boston is extremely knowledgeable. She takes you step by step through classic recipes and shows you how to convert them to be vegan. Her recipes are lovely and each step is broken down with beautiful magazine worthy photographs. She just completed her first cook book that I am defintely going to pick up. I think you should too. You can check out the book here: Vegan Yum Yum: Decadent (But Doable) Animal-Free Recipes for Entertaining and Everyday

Resurrecting an old love.

Once upon a time photography was my passion. If I was seen without my camera people would ask if something was wrong. I documented every thing, every event. It was even my major in college. But as time went on the cost of buying film and printing photos became burdensome. I also realized that I wasn't experiencing moments, just trying to capture them on film. So I shelved my cameras and they began collecting dust somewhere deep in my closet.

When digital cameras came onto the scene, like most photographers, I was against them staying true to the tradition of film cameras. Well, it's been about eight years now since digital became mainstream and I finally made the big leap!

I can now combine my love of digital art with my personal photography! How exciting!

Here are some images that I captured over the past week, would love to hear your thoughts!

More to come!
