kickin’ around The Dallas Museum of Art
The Dallas Museum of Art has been around since 1903. That was a long time ago! It started off as a room, founded by The Art Committee of the Public Library. Show after show, the organization pushed forward and expanded. The collection continued to grow until it became what it is today. You know me,…

DIY camera filters
There are a lot of times that I don’t want to use my “fancy” camera. But when you’re used to the quality of a picture taken by a 5D, the typical iphone photo feels inadequate. My quick fix for that problem is to make the photo my own with an artistic twist. This go round I…

googly for Guggenheim
I’m always looking for a connection between art and fashion. It gives the statement of your outfit purpose.

What’s so great about Air Max sneakers, you ask? Well, they make it possible to walk on air. That’s awesome. They’re comfortable as heck. And…

And in my Nike dreams, I’d wear all of these items with with: Michael Kors Caicos Sunglasses, Bone Cuff by Elsa Peretti, Banana Republic Acid Bright Statement Earring, & Cynthia Steffe Faux Snakeskin Ponte…

art museum posts are my favorite kinda posts
The Kimbell in Fort Worth, Texas is on of my favorite museums. I’m a Michelangelo freak, so that might explain it. A few years ago, The Kimbell acquired The Torment of Saint Anthony. It is supposedly Michelangelo’s first painting. You can see it above– depicting an old guy being attacked by a buncha demons. How cool…
