"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from - it’s where you take them to."

-Jim Jarmusch

thanks lovers in vain

movers and shakers = the makers

i'm loving all of the images over at photographer jennifer causey's the maker's project...

pretty braids...

that's all :)

blog hearts: lovely bohemia

some more pretty images here.

thank you...

simple words to live by. cute print can be found here. a few creative ladies that i admire for sticking with their things/styles are: kelly wearstler, jen gotch, kate and laura mulleavy, victoire de castellane, and lena corwin. it's easy for anyone to follow others, but doing your own thing is admirable in my book. cheers to them!

sunday funday: brooklyn botanical garden
