They keep it simple

I was traveling last year and came across these paintings/collages made by local kids that were hanging outside to dry.  When I was a kid I drew animals, mostly dogs, but according to my mother I loved to draw brides.  I think kids draw what they feel, more than what they see. I certainly didn’t…

Edie Sedgwick music video is here!

As promised, here’s the music video I directed for Sage’s song, Edie Sedgwick. Enjoy!

There are people who live with this all the time who don’t play vampires…

If you’re a Twilight fan, its possible that you’ve heard/read about the cast complaining that we have no peripheral vision due to the lenses we wear in the films.

Its beautiful just ask my mom…
