i had nothing better to do than listen. i mean this seriously. (mary oliver)








the items: a recovered window shade; a household's collection of earrings
the source: the decrepit basement of the sycamore house; the wealth of three girls
the story: a straightforward tale. i saw the screen beneath stacks of dust, and i saw my earrings awry on my dresser, clinging like crabs in a bucket to each other. so i put them together like slant rhyme. it helps me adorn my ears, and having handsome ears helps me listen.
the price: $0 (window shade) + $Years of Collected Pairs of Earrings = $Sorta 0







and now, welcome to a segment we call This Person Has Surpassed Me in which i catch wind of someone doing excellent work, and i want to tell you about them.

today's guest is justin arawjo, one of my very favorite local artists AND people. his screenprint designs are at once bizarre and familiar, and his style is recognizable from across the room. here is my favorite design of his.
