its been over a year

and today i am back
not sure why i stopped
it probably had something to do with crystal envisioning during la tour de le pyramide that summer followed by strange first year at school in berkeley
regardless i am ready to post some more stuffs

these are from the memorial fort by david wilson visit: here

to see more pictures and awesomeness from this guy ( i got these pictures from there)

i was lucky enough to visit this fort for the second time today

i feel i could have hung out for ages

such a peaceful little forest surrounded by yellow hills

the fort itself is a beautiful piece made with wondrous heartfelt love

yeh i feel lucky

lately i cant get enough of nests...i made seven since last summer and hung them up across the country in different cities. here is one:

i have been slow to make more. somehow seven seems like a good number. when i get my world all situated - hopefully by fall i will post them all. they are all made using found stuff but the magic parts of these guys are the scenes on the inside.

so lately or at least during the early winter months, i was and have been thinking of giant nests. adriana (watching my making mania spread onto the living room floor) said i could make one in her gallery so i am gonna go for it. awesomely enough my friend and mega collaborator supreme, jessica findley, was into the idea of the nest so we made a model together of a magical rainbow nest and applied for some funding. fingers crossed cause then we can bring the magic to life. during those days and they were kinda delusional due to the fact that i must have had a heavy duty fever, didnt eat for a week and was seriously in a nest fervor, i told her my dream of the arches which is sorta top secret so i cant say it here but how i am totally inspired by the bower bird since i saw this aired on tv back in the late 90s while i was on some late night tirade making a 3d puzzle.

the most masterful architect bower bird:
