How I wish I had an art-friend; a boy with wavy locks, an exquisite, tragic face and the soft body of a Greek hero that could pose for me, someone that did not speak other than through the positions of a celestial mortal saving the fate of its people. And I wish - I wish a girl tiptoed out of a fairy tale to pause her body to show us poor humans the incredible unworldly life of the beings we...

Finally deciding to place my new Christmas books in their proper place, I realise there’s no space left. Crumbs. Mythology books have to go in the mythology section and fashion books have to go in the fashion section, and turns out that between the two there is space only for a magazine.

2012 resolutions
Act more, worry less;
Read more, think about reading less;
Create fearlessly from my own mind more, find inspiration less;
Observe more, forget less;
Trust more, fear less;
Learn more, hurt less;
Explore more, shelter less;
Admit more, pretend less;
Know more, long to know less;
and try not to chase after my own death in the process.

Social isolation leads me to this. →
I kind of want to make a video like darling Kate did. I need to feel I speak to someone; I am too alone. I can answer whatever, I think. I will put it in the words of Morrissey: ask me ask me ask meee…

Would you tell me where you’ve found your wallpaper - or else, would you tell me where I can find a lovely fantasy wallpaper? I am striving to find one, particularly an enlarged illustration of Arthur Rackham / John Bauer / Kay Nielsen or any similar artist, but it’s too difficult to find a good picture, and big enough, that isn’t in vertical position! Please, give me a hand!,...
