This small house,
it feels like shy, falling pebbles
upon a bundle of nervous cotton
laying quite still.
It's her body, heavy and
warm, as if she just grew, then faded
and grew again,
lost from someone's thoughts
in a hurry, and left there
like a cat out in
a dying forest.
She keeps something
on her knees, it is soft and small
and it makes her laugh
like a stubborn castle.
A row of people
use their lilac colored eyes
to make doors in the castle to walk
through, and they all leave dots
of snow petals on the floor
to lick, for a cat's tongue,
but they do not have time
to look around.
From small to smaller, she puts her hands
against her head and do not mind
the house, though it has
a sour smell of loneliness
and shy pebbles,
and leaves her feeling dumb,
like a cat left behind
in a dying forest.
This is a really (really, really) edited photo of a red and yellow calla lily that I took in my kitchen one day. I was looking everywhere for the "perfect" image of a white calla lily for a project I was working on.
I found that:
a) White calla lilies are beautiful - one of my favorite flowers, beside white roses - but they don't show much detail in photos; and
b) What I really wanted was a calla *drawing* and I could not find one that really suited my purposes.
So, I made my own - I was quite happy with myself over the result!

Thanks!
I'm enjoying archiving my work. Recently I found this drawing that I did for "Home Video Magazine." I had to look up when CNN started. It was 1980 when I did the illustration, so I guess the article was about that.
This is my Lomography ActionSampler, Cameron.
I got Cameron while travelling the US, from a camera shop in Utah. He takes four shots to one frame of film, in the time of one second. He's fun, spontaneous, simple and colourful. He loves capturing movement. I usually don't enjoy photographing moving subjects, but Cameron has brought me out of my comfort zone of film photography.
