I recently spent two days in my studio under the blissful tutelage of pure desire.
The result was a collection of ovals, each made from some small scrap of weathered fabric, cardboard, and either a felt or paper backing.
Although the work began spontaneously, it wasn't long before I was collecting a list of connections:
A way to honor cherished bits of fabric
Ideal hoosh items for overhead shots
Symbols of self — the oval is my trademark
Esoteric connection — the amygdala/third eye/philosopher's stone/egg/crucible of life/perfection
Art objects — I feel they fully express everything I would want to say
I know I will return...
The undisciplined life of a prop stylist: part memoir, part creative exploration, part styling blog.
Rent Dress Collaboration
Recent collaboration with J. Morgan Puett and the Mildred's Lane Complexity
After digging around in morgan's archive, we came across a vintage slip that struck both Morgan and I as being unusually appealing.

Morgan worked on having the body of the slip reinvented, using antique cotton organdy, while I assembled bodices, using one of a kind lace and crochet appliques, from my library of gathered materials.
Final four dresses available on Morgan's site
