wow. hello. a week plus. a short and long time simultaneously. how is that possible??

and my oh my did i miss some major blog happenings... the color week brought to you by p2p and stephanie .... um do you guys know how awesome your pictures are? as i caught up with all 495 blog entries today [yup - see what happens when you miss a week] i was bombarded by all the amazing photos.

the funniest interview ever. is there any doubt why we all love hillary and amy ? smart alecs + make amazing things.... duh.

plus abigail joins whip-up and anke and poppy return. wow. i'm kind of feeling like i shouldn't leave the house.

i am on some crazy unreal time schedule. i couldn't tell you what time it was if my life depended on it. above is a shot from the taxi on the way to chelsea pier to meet up w/ host #1 of our travels. the whole trip in pictures seems to be about architecture and landscape. i can't believe how many shots i took of buildings. buildings and sky. buildings and sky. like a broken record i was.

but more on this later.... when hopefully i will have a shred of cognition. if i forget [highly likely] - remind me to try and synthesize thoughts on "place" and "light".... and artemesia... it took me a minute to get rolling, but then how can you not get involved in 17th century rome? politics, woman painter, intrigue, torture?? yeah, i'm hooked.

missed you all... only slightly less than i missed the pets.....xo
