the room is so bright that Casey wears sunglasses. In such a small chair she reminded me of Stevie Wonder, if he were to seam rip of course.

A typical still life at Rick Owens

2008-03-29T15:26:00.001-07:00

The furniture in the Atelier is designed by Rick Owens. They are quite intense looking they create these sub environments within the room. Felted walls in bruised colors create an interesting dichotomy with the romanticaly molded ceiling.

2008-03-29T15:25:00.001-07:00

2008-03-29T15:23:00.003-07:00

The other day, Natasha the girl I work for pulled out a 12 foot alligator skin, it was so marvelous.

Flying to Berlin

2008-03-29T15:15:00.001-07:00

A typical German meal, I ordered slow cooked beef with cabbage salad and potato dumplings, Aaron ordered chicken schnitzel with potatoes. Delicious but quite heavy

2008-03-29T15:14:00.001-07:00

2008-03-29T15:11:00.001-07:00

Florescent camouflage in the metros can be quite nauseating when you are hung over.

2008-03-29T15:05:00.001-07:00

Calypso shoes in Prenzlauer Berg, walls and walls of shoes. In general the thrift and vintage looks better from afar.

2008-03-29T15:04:00.001-07:00

The store Apartment in Berlin is on the bottom floor of an empty gallery.

2008-03-29T15:03:00.001-07:00

2008-03-29T15:01:00.001-07:00

We ate this Thai meal two days in a row because it was s.b.r.s. and cheap.

2008-03-29T14:58:00.001-07:00

The Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin, designed by Mies Van der Rohe, is definitely worth seeing.

2008-03-29T14:56:00.001-07:00

The sculpture garden outside

2008-03-23T07:30:00.001-07:00

A pretty epic dance party last weekend

2008-03-23T07:29:00.001-07:00

This guy was awesome

2008-03-23T07:28:00.001-07:00

I'm looking through books in Colette and see Jack's book, I thought it was funny to see a picture of Harley, Nora and Alex while I was standing in a store in Paris. It makes me particularly homesick.

2008-03-23T07:10:00.001-07:00

Phillippe Orphe, the person I assist at Rick's trying on a leather, and Goat hair Glove. He's one of the coolest that I have met in Paris.

2008-03-13T15:35:00.001-07:00

At a random house party. We heard music and people dancing, Casey rushes up to people heading to the party, and say's "Je m'appelle Casey!" They weren't so in to us, until we said we were from New York, then they started bowing.

2008-03-13T15:34:00.001-07:00

2008-03-07T11:04:00.000-08:00

Only at Parsons Paris can you drink beer publicly in the classrooms. Not only is it cheaper and more thirst quenching than water, it also has braille embossed on the top which says "dispose of properly"

Casey babysits for a girl named Mathilde. This is some of her art:

2008-02-24T17:03:00.000-08:00

No more spoons.

2008-02-24T17:01:00.000-08:00

Also, purchased that sweet dinosaur in the background today at the Flea Market in Montreuil.

2008-02-24T16:57:00.000-08:00

Brilliance at Rick Owens. On a side not, got totally stuck inside L'ecole des Beaux Arts where the show was at and was so excited to see the school that I've learned and read so much about.

2008-02-24T16:55:00.000-08:00

This is by far the worst outfit I've ever seen.

2008-02-24T16:52:00.000-08:00

I sort of love this, someone rendered a face into an incidental spill.

2008-02-24T16:47:00.000-08:00

(One day in the draping studio)

Casey walks in through the front door

Casey: Hey Dylan, did you miss me last night?

Dylan: Ya I sure did, how was house sitting?

Casey: It was alright, sat around and watched movies, their cats are crazy, what did you do?

Dylan: Oh, didn't miss much, stayed up until 3 am watching skateboarding videos on Youtube

Kwame quickly interjects....

Kwame: I'm looking at your feet right now, and you guys sound like a bunch of lesbians

2008-02-24T16:40:00.000-08:00

This is Kwame.

2008-02-24T16:33:00.000-08:00

This is pretty amazing. Someone took the time to chip away a picture of Mount Rushmore from old paint. Its pretty accurate as well.

2008-02-14T09:31:00.000-08:00

I woke up this morning, and hurried to the train station only to find with my dreary eyes a half carcass hanging from hooks. The picture was taken after a man came out and wrestled the other half into the store.

2008-02-14T09:25:00.000-08:00

I just completed a fabric treatment using the batik technique. It is wax, and fabric dyes. The title is "Landscape (Mars)"

2008-02-14T09:17:00.000-08:00

Oh my....Happy Valentines Day!

Today I went to the Paris Zoo and Lake at Creteil. It was so beautiful. The best part is the mixture of artificial scenery (above) with real animals (below). I'm a real sucker for both fake, and real nature, especially when the two are combined.

2008-02-10T08:25:00.000-08:00

Last night I met up with Josephine at a party.....

2008-02-09T10:44:00.000-08:00

sky lines. Today was the prettiest day in Paris since I've been here. Sunny, lively, and fairly warm.

2008-02-09T10:16:00.000-08:00

Casey introduced me to a store that has 1950- 1960's notebooks, rulers, chalkboards, and beautiful trinkets and antiques. I bought this metal compass which was so pretty when closed that I decided to wear it around my neck.

2008-02-09T09:47:00.000-08:00

2008-02-09T09:45:00.000-08:00

A really colorful antique science and oddity shop in St. Germain.

2008-02-09T09:37:00.000-08:00

Also featured antique gynecology clamps, and female sex organ models.

2008-02-08T10:02:00.000-08:00

Meet Le Couteau, the tool I use to cut dozens of skins at Rick's. He is beautiful, and I wish he was mine..

2008-02-08T09:51:00.000-08:00

All the fur skins at Rick Owens for Revillion

2008-02-08T09:45:00.000-08:00

2008-02-08T09:40:00.000-08:00

The condition of my apartment when Casey and I are working at the same time.

2008-02-07T15:24:00.000-08:00

This picture of pink bikes, makes me deeply miss the celebrity.
