La Teta Asustada ( the Milk of Sorrow)

This is the first film from my country Peru to be nominated for an Oscar. Claudia Llosa directed what to me is one of the best movies I have seen in the past year. I was able to watch the whole movie last week, and I gotta say , it has been a great inspiration for me.

I recommend it to everyone, please watch the trailer and read the review.

Also Magaly Solier is a wonderful actress and singer in this movie.

Julie Tingley

I was lucky enough to meet you Julie last week through some dear friends of mine. I was actually working on a photo shoot with Ben Grad and I needed some models. Julie was one of the models that showed up at my house, and was awesome enough to be part of the photo shoot.I befriended her in Facebook after that and I found all of these lovely photographs she had taken, and I fell in love with them.

I believe in her talent and would love to see her putting her photography out there for people to see. 

Here are some of here pictures.

Swampdonkey

I cant believe I had not posted about Swampy before...Ok let me tell you how much I adore this guy, I have been a fan ever since i found out about him. he draws, he rides trains, he does Graffiti, he makes shirts, he is a photographer, shit the guy can do it all!

look at his flickr to see more of his wonderful art. HERE

This is my x-mas present for my friend Heather. She is also a huge Swampdonkey fan, so thanks to Endless Canvas, I was able to get her a Swampdonkey print and frame it for her.

Wild Beasts

Heather just introduce me to this band..She gave a cd with their music as my x-mas present..

I must admit I'm becoming a huge fan, plus the video for hooting and howling is pretty amazing.

I like this Nick Cave better

On our recent fact finding mission in San Francisco we went to the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and saw Nick Cave's super exciting sound suits. There were videos and photographs and a large installation, which included a giant globe covered in dismantled sequin dresses and a very convincing polar bear, similarly assembled from sweaters. Each piece was overwhelmingly beautiful and I got a little extra mileage out of it all because there were a few very appreciative children visiting at the same time. So, I got to enjoy a part of the show once and then a second time through their eyes. Magic. Definitely, visit YBCA if you do nothing else when in San Francisco. Find out more about Nick Cave and YBCA HERE.
