Much like the process of a recovering addict or a workout beginner looking to create a new lifestyle, my failures will not consume me but only remind me that I am human.

The long-awaited Part deux to the Idle/Angle series has now arrived. I'm very proud of the series for a few reasons, one in particular being that the quality of the images and the expression through them is seamless but most importantly I can say that I am honestly proud that I was able to actually complete it. The problem I have often, as well as other artists that I speak to regularly, is keeping the same energy from inception to completion. It is so easy to get discouraged throughout the process and loose interest as a result but the mental fortitude needed to complete a vision is definitely an uphill battle.

In actuality, it’s getting warmer but after spending 8 days in LA with 80 degree weather, it seems my body has refused to adjust to these cooler temperatures. As glad as I am to be home I still haven’t been able to settle back in to life in DC but being that I have no choice, I’ve got to force it out of myself.
Read MoreNo one likes when Summer ends, especially on the East Coast where the temperature change is drastic. This concept was inspired by that resentment - wanting to still enjoy the warmth and extra hours of daylight but still wanting to embrace the fashion of Fall. (By the way, anyone that calls it Autumn is weird and I don’t trust them).
