A Few of my Favorite Things




1. Lavender. I can't remember a day that lavender was not my favorite scent.  When I light a candle or pick up a bar of soap, it will smell of lavender.

2. Film camera.  I like to take photos wherever I go.  I learned how to develop film on my own and even though the photos sometimes turn out looking too dark or out of focus, the process intrigues me.

3. Rings. I feel naked without them. 

4. Tiny notebook. In all honesty, my favorite part of being an artist is being able to make little drawings that no one will ever see.  There isn't so much pressure with something so small. 

5. Wooden pencil. An old friend of mine handmade this for me.  I tend to lose things often but this I will have forever.

6. Paintbrush.  I realized about 6 months ago that my niche is using oil paint.  All of my brushes now are covered with different pigments.  My friend will tell me, "you really need to get new brushes," but I don't know, in a way they feel like part of my favorite pieces that I've created.

7. Orange lighting.  I feel most peaceful when the orange lighting lights up my bedroom at night.  Even more when it rains.
