Inspiration: David Evenson

January 30th, 2009

Some more photos. Via David Evenson, a photographer who lives in our neighborhood and has snapped some great shots of it (yes he even has a shot of our place, but I’m not linking it!). His landscapes are pretty great too.

  1. Neighborhood at night
  2. Neighborhood after snow
  3. Nice shot of one of the three large wildfires that burned in early January of this year around Boulder
  4. Neighborhood sunrise

Inspiration: Todd Hido

January 30th, 2009

Thanks to booooooom for the link to the works of photographer Todd Hido. (Hey, I ALWAYS credit anything I post that I found on another’s blog.)

Who thought it possible to turn something as pedestrian as suburban houses into something otherworldly, and downright creepy? Hido blows away the familiar and replaces it with a more sinister version. There is a desolate, abandoned quality to all of his photos. To me, they evoke the feel of a Don DeLillo novel.

Be sure to check out the full size versions at the artist’s site, along with his other equally thought provoking series.

Cathy Pill

January 28th, 2009

Sorry, I’ve been MIA for a few days, guys. I’ve been suddenly very busy, with little time for searching for things to post. Don’t worry, I intend to keep my five days a week schedule!


Some of you may remember me posting Cathy Pill a few times in the past. I always get so excited when I visit her site after a long hiatus, because I don’t think I’ve ever not liked her collections (although the A/W 08/09 collection felt a bit uninspired, I did like the coats).

I adore her skilled, painterly use of colour and masterful draping, and talk about wearable. Pieces below are from her gorgeous S/S 09 collection.
I was disappointed to notice that her past collections are no longer available for viewing on her site, though. (Check the archives and the posts at the old lj community.)
