seattle, pt. 1

so, there will be a second edition of this post, considering there is a roll of film lost somewhere in the midst of traveling (!), packing, unpacking, and moving (!).

but for now, here are some wonderful things from the pacific northwest:

family (and our lovely hosts)

feels like home

two of my best friends

flying a kite

hidden anemones & urchins.

little things & great colors.

listening to Beach House right now. loving it.

here. in seattle.

5:23 wake up > 5:45 leave house > 7:25 departure > vegas > (falling asleep and almost landing on the lady next to me... > 12:45 seattle > 2:00 Jacquie pick up > 5s instead of 5n > visiting Jeff at Whole Foods > home by 4:45 (6:45 nashville time).

whew.

today is Rosemary's birthday. she is one of Jacquie's best friends here in Seattle, and she is a wonderful lady.

so i made her a little drawing: i hope she likes it.... i mean, i just met the girl today.

hurrah to making art the first day i'm here (!)

it feels so wonderful to be here, with family. which reminds me how much i want to live near them. nashville is home, but i don't think it will be forever. new york is calling me, eventually. but i think seattle is the other option for alternate US homes.

more to come. market in the morning (FISH!).

so much love,

- k

ps. seattle is so cold! but i love it.
