Kate The Great

Finally reading Russell Brand’s second autobiography Bookie Wook 2  : P ...it sounds cheesy BUT! his vocabulary is untouchable and the book is fucking hilarious, cant read it in public, makes me look properly crazy laughing in the midst of dead silence to myself. mmmm anyways, book opens with a dialogue about Kate Moss, so yes! A post to the greatest model of our century, never ever get sick of her : )  

"Not canonized Kate, not the Kate who can only be squinted at least her radiance shreds your mortal retinas, not the Kate who'd had God present at her conception, ushering through the holy sperm to the sainted ovum, where the orgasmic cries of her parents harmonized with the salutations of the choiring cherubim." p.7

"A beacon of beauty, a universally accepted sign of goodness as close to truth and glory as one could ever be without uttering a word." p.9

SIREN, Marc Quinn, 2008
 a life sized, 18-carat gold sculpture of Kate Moss by British contemporary artist Marc Quinn that was promoted as the largest gold statue since ancient Egypt!


"Beyond the dreams of Pharaohs and Nazis there is an inaccessible gold that shimmers like a halo above Kate Moss. Is it her hair? Her aura? Her hair's aura? Her aura's hair? I try to drift past her nonchalantly, ignoring my own cacophonous swallows and ticks." p.8

CHERRY BLOSSOM TREE

SOOOO much rain and dark skies, the cherry blossom trees in front of the apartment blossomed in April last year! not until today that I am seeing a bit of pink peaking from the green : )  good good good, that means almost time for picnics and reading in the grass.... just a bit more sunshine ...just a little bit please.

SUNKISSED

One of my favorite smells,  my skin after I’ve been out in the sun for too long...and suntan lotion in the summer....um um, it doesn't sound that good but, it makes me feel warm and I think of orange popsicles after a day at the beach, a hot cloudless sky and a bit of left over sand and a red bikini I don't want to take off until bed time 

good good good 

now I want to go to the cabin : ( 

i love wildfox

The Magic Effects of Color

Color Theory and Application..... what was i thinking to register in such a class? ahghh my decisions sometimes, anyways, aside from my complete failure to differentiate between the various theories, I did find this  lovely lovely quote .....so, mood lifted : ) 

 "Through Chevruel's research and our own experiences, we know that colors are not static.

Colors are similar to people, their personalities change and they can be influenced by close associations." - Joen Wolfrom in The Magic Effects of Color

....not going to elaborate on the theory behind this quote....it is extremely uninteresting, I assure you.
