i am becoming really passionate about this kitchen & dish series that i've been doing for the past year or so. i've been posting them on here now and then.... and am slowly realizing that there's something here to pay more attention to. the series is going to become my next body of work that i frame. i got some test prints the other day----- 16x24"----------- and i screamed when i opened the box. there's a spirit to these images that just gets me. these say shannon to me, but in a way i didn't know really existed. so. this is now my new thing.
favorite part about this one....... the water marks on the french press. the glories of hand-washing your dishes in southern california's hard water,
and i figured out that 4pm is magic in my kitchen.
....its crazy to me that all of these are from the same 10 minute span of time, from the exact same mix of dishes just sitting on the counter. they all feel like they're from opposite ends of the universe. this is a good example of my best photo trick: move around a lot.
so i hope today is a really good day for you.
if its not..........
i hope these made you a little happier.

(07.26.10 @ 08:38 PM)While you are having fun working in your kitchen, I'm having fun in my NEW kitchen! Come take pictures of it - I'm getting out things from storage that I haven't seen for 10 years!!!! Now that's about as fun as it gets. Two sets of dishes that I remember enjoying to join the two sets that Caol left for me. Mine are better - hehehe
