Friday, June 25th, 2010I am on my way to Tuscany, Italy, for a week of summer, pasta and painting.

David Maisel
Sunday, May 9th, 2010I just have to share these awesome photos by David Maisel. He found hundreds of copper canisters that hold the remains of patients from a psychiatric hospital that have never been claimed. Time, the ashes on the inside and other conditions have changed the canisters into unique masterpieces. I have always liked close-ups and these [...]
