“. . . the beauty any of us can find in everyday life if we aren’t too caught up in other things to stop and really look.” -curator Eric Paddock
Everyday life:
Date afternoon with Jim in Denver. After enjoying some delicious cupcakes from Lovely Confections Bakery (I’m blaming my addiction on YOU, Anslee!), we wandered into Mod Livin’, a mid-century modern furniture shop. I am a bit obsessed with letterforms, and couldn’t resist grabbing a few semi-abstract shots of the sans-serif type stenciled onto one of their walls.
P.S. My sister just sent me the most wonderful present, a book called How to Be an Explorer of the World, by Keri Smith (love it. highly recommend it to anyone, especially artists or someone who wants to be an artist). The single sentence on its back cover reminds me of my “stop & look” project:
“At any given moment, no matter where you are, there are hundreds of things around you that are interesting and worth documenting.”
