Willard Suitcases




The photographer, John Crispin has been documenting vintage suitcases
and their contents which were brought to a psychiatric hospital in
Willard, NY between 1910 and 1960's. The suitcases were stored and
forgotten about until found in 1995. Shown here are the ones containing textiles
and sewing supplies, others have more varied contents.
Check out the project here. Found via foxtail and fern.
Happy Friday!

Country


I love this image of a man showing an owl to a boy and a girl.
It captures that magical  moment when something wild is examined
and appreciated. It also reminds me how I learned to love animals
from my mom. Thanks mom! Via A well traveled woman.

Miniwilderness


Today's fortune is my goal, but unfortunately due to events brought on by life,
I am not living up to it. Maybe there will be a sketchbook Tuesday.
The picture above is a sculpture by Andy Goldsworthy called Miniwilderness,
1987 at Yorkshire Sculpture Park West Bretton, UK Via Pale.

Sketch Book Monday


It's interesting to see how sketches translate. This was sketched from a
Free People catalogue, kinda reminded me of Molly Ringwald. Happy Monday!
