jamie mcpartland

when jamie mcpartland send me the most lovely email, i

didn't have to think twice about posting some of her beautiful work.

she believes in the canon of art as a folk tradition. and a common thread between

all traditions. jamie uses rough handmade paper + wood panels as my canvas.

jamie grew up in the woods of northern california + lives in brooklyn.

she says: all are welcome to visit my studio + i am always open to commissions

(or to join forces with other artists on new projects).

i would love to see some more of her (not yet finished) woven textures...+ more

thank you jamie, hope to meet you one day in person...

true love

true love is like ghosts,
which everybody talks about + few have seen.

travel

we travel for romance,

we travel for architecture,

and we travel to be lost.

wander

not all those who wander are lost

tolkien

and ever has it been that love knows not its

own depth until the hour of separation.

i wish i had a thousand words for love,

but all that comes to mind

is the way you move against me while you sleep,

and there are no words for that.

you...

you are flawed, you are stuck in old patterns,

you become carried away with yourself.

indeed you are quite impossible in many ways.

and still, you are beautiful beyond measure.

simply wait

you do not need to leave your room.

remain sitting at your table + listen. do not even listen,

simply wait. do not even wait, be quite still + solitary.

the world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked.

it has no choice. it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.

book#2

a good book should leave you… slightly exhausted at the end.

you live several lives while reading it.

moon...

if the moon smiled, she would resemble you.
you leave the same impression
of something beautiful, but annihilating.

addiction

what I want is to be needed.
what I need is to be indispensable to somebody.
who I need is somebody that will eat up
all my free time, my ego, my attention.
somebody addicted to me. a mutual addiction.
