last season, i had the opportunity to intern with brooklyn designer & creative lady extraordinaire, caitlin mociun. among the highlights for me were working on a few of her newest fall prints (as shown below), as well as shooting the spring & fall 2010 collections.
caitlin's newest collection is up on her online store now. it's a beautiful mix of silks, signature prints, and multi-functional silhouettes. check it out here.

since we went pumpkin patch pickin', i got all country on your asses & decided to make some fall candles with some of our bounty. pumpkin candles!!!

instructions on my flickr.

pardon my obsession...

even more pictures (along with some relevant info) on my flickr.

took a day trip to connecticut yesterday. we visited silverman's farm & bought $45 worth of apples & pumpkins.


my faves were the warty pumpkins. there were also some really beautiful pink & green pumpkins. more gourds gone wild on my flickr...

we spent the rest of the day touring a monument of modern archictecture: philip johnson's glass house. i took a million pics & videos, and i hope to them up on the interwebs sometime soonish... if you're at all interested in modern architecture & art, i highly recommend taking the guided tour. amazing. i spent a good 20 minutes in a tiny underground gallery filled with oversized frank stella paintings, trolled thru a field where merce cunningham dancers & the velvet underground once spent sixties summer nights frolicking, and refrained from sitting in original mies van der rohe chairs that andy warhol spent a considerable amount of time in... i mean, really.

i have a date with philip johnson & a 7d tomorrow. i can't wait!

god, i wish i were french... (or french enough to really claim it!)
