4 Things // Creative Muse

Happy Sunday wanderers. I'm listening to this interview with Austin Kleon on Creative Live.  He mentions Elizabeth Gilbert and her idea of genius being more of the Greek concept of the muse.  I love this idea of thoughts visiting you if you give them space in your daily practice.  He also mentions an interview she did with Tom Waits.  Tom would often get great ideas while he was driving. He would look up kind of frustrated and say, "Hey can't you see I'm driving".  I'm looking forward to finding this interview.

Listening :Creative Live

Reading : Just wrapped up Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond FearbyElizabeth Gilbert recently - so good.

Adventuring : Mike and I drove from San Francisco to San Diego along the coast earlier this week.  We took the time to create some beautiful images and try out new techniques along the way.

Dreaming of : Looking to get some good news for my dad at the doctors this week.

4 Things // City by the Bay

We took a road trip up to the Bay Area for a gorgeous engagement shoot and to hang out with some friends. I love this city.

Art : The SFMOMA re-opened this month after being closed for two years and we loved exploring the new exhibits. 

More Art: The de Young exhibition was beautiful and inspiring. 

Photographing : We loved spending time together on our road trip and stopping wherever we wanted to take pictures. Abby and Ben were our shoot at Mare Island which is one of the most engaging places we have shot in. Half abandoned industrial and half gorgeous natural awe inspiring views. Mike and I were incredibly inspired. 

Watching : The HBO documentary of Robert Mapplethorpe. Mapplethorpe: Look at the Pictures

4 Things // Loss & Life

This week, I lost a friend. It's so hard to comprehend the loss of such a beautiful life. Despite the sadness, there were many moments of happy joy including Mike and I celebrating our anniversary together. It was a week of celebrating life. 

Playing:Constellations at the Old Globe. It was interesting although if I never saw another play that has cancer as their central theme, that would be great. We then went to AIDS night out at Barrio Star

Watching: Game of Thrones premiere YAY!

Travel: Mike got home from Indiana! It was our anniversary and so nice to celebrate together.

Photographing: Amazing wedding for Sarah and Anson with Coastyle Events and Annette Gomez at the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe. It was a great team and a beautiful couple. Heart dropping inspiration really helped me get through this week.
