Everyone is supposed to have a blog, right?

Vanitas, still life, and emphemera

Objects, stuff that sits around, arranging it, looking for a composition that generates energy and balance.  I have kind of always done this.  My decorating style of late, pulses.  I have taken photos of things, even before we did this with our phones, and I still do.  This set of photos explores the ideas of the Dutch Vanitas paintings and puts them into less frightening context, more aimed at, well pulsing with energy but hanging in balance.
