New Merch: The Four Winds Mugs

So, years ago, the Mad Model and I spent a day at the beach, Half Moon Bay to be precise, on a foggy, rainy day, where by the end of it, we were frozen and a little wet. It was the first time out by the way for a piece of fabric that you all should recognize by now, as this one piece of freaking white (well, white-ish now) gauze/net thing has been my go to prop when I need something that’ll just…well…work.

But this was the day where it took on a life of its own, and frankly, became its own character. The day it falls to shreds and I can no longer use it, I will probably weep and either cremate it by fire or bury it with full funeral rites. And it was also the day where I shot one of my most iconic images.

This one:

The West Wind

This image still makes my heart stop, and the three others that go with it. Even in its raw form, I knew I had something and by the end of it, I had four images, that would eventually be the cornerstone of my first solo show. Hung together on one wall, they are something else, at 16×20, though honestly, I’d love to print them up to about four feet wide. They just take your heart out of your chest standing in front of them. Also, the most blatant time where one woman, the Mad Model, became four.

And now, they’re on mugs. I’m pretty stoked. Check them out!
