I’ve been in Vietnam for a few days now. I don’t yet have words…

Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | 10 Great Collections…

The picture of the record collection was once again featured in a post on one of my favorite design blogs. Small pleasures ;)

I was looking through old photos and I found these snaps of my friend Dale Dreiling. Dale does amazing mixed media art. This series of portraits of Bill Murray (as various characters) was amazing! Visit Dale’s website here.

Sorry for the lack of material. I have been working and preparing for a two week trip to Vietnam in November.

These span years. I’m sure there are more. I’ve been very busy lately so I apologize for the lack of interesting blog posts. Instead you get feet.

I just purchased this original poster from the 1980 Russian Olympics.

Another piece from Your Bright Future. A traditional Korean scholar’s house crashes into a US apartment. Fallen Star 1/5 by Do Ho Suh. This piece is massive and amazingly detailed.

Welcome and HappyHappy by Choi Jeong-Hwa out the LACMA. Part of Your Bright Future: 12 Contemporary Artists From Korea. I would definitely recommend checking out this show. It will be at the LACMA until September 20th. You can walk through the strings of plastic containers. It’s fun.

I took part in a video shoot for Health earlier this week. I think it’s going to look really good. Luke is going to edit it! The song is called Die Slow and you can listen to it on their myspace. These kids in the last picture were awesome. They stayed super late into the night and were all soaked in fake blood by the end of it.

My friend Kim (Black Church) is playing tomorrow night at Show Cave in Echo Park. I think she is an all around amazing person so if you have no plans you should check it out.

Samsung commercial featuring James McAvoy and a song by The Mae Shi. Silly advertising – get this phone and chose life ;)

Kim sent me a link to this collection called Sentry about gallery desks in Chelsea. I love the feeling of calm in all the pictures. It’s also pretty funny to see all the tops of peoples heads. Anyone who has been to enough galleries will recognize this scene.

I attempted a rainbow cake for Caitlin’s birthday and I am so happy with the way it came out. It tasted good, too!

A beautiful day in Malibu. The water was warm enough to swim (though it was rough). Fried seafood was a perfect end to the day. I love how late it stays light now.

This morning I received an email saying that a photo I took (which they found on Flickr) was going to be on a website called Schmap in their guide to LA section. I am representing my old neighborhood of Echo Park. My new neighborhood of Atwater Village didn’t even make the list!

Apartment Therapy LA is one of my favorite home design blogs. It was one of the first things I put in my Google reader when I started collecting blogs to read. I often get behind because there are so many posts. I was going through the backlog when I spotted a very familiar picture of my new apartment. Since this was taken I made curtains for the window. I’ll post some pictures of things soon. I’d hoped to have the apartment ready by now but life got in the way.
