[/lightbox]Architecture that challenges perception has always been a source of creative inspiration for me. Last year, while traveling in New Mexico, I happened upon the Miraculous Staircase in the Loretto Chapel in Santa Fe. Built to solve the everyday problem of how to access the choir loft without interfering with the space in this tiny Gothic church, the carpenter accomplished a feat of engineering that … Read More

[/lightbox]Inspiration is ephemeral. To an artist, it happens without thought, a moment in time caught from the corner of an eye, a scent, a sound, a touch, a brief shift in space. It is not always easy to explain. I have been writing this blog now for over two years, weaving lyrical musings of my life and its intimate rapport with lingerie. My connection to … Read More

[/lightbox]In preparation for college in the late 60’s, my mother felt compelled to buy me a trunk full of “outfits”. She took me shopping to Saks and Best & Company (now I am really dating myself) and insisted on a bevy of tweed skirts with cable knit sweaters; matching knee-his included. It was like buying a trousseau, and I obliged, because frankly, who knew? Suffice … Read More

I polished my nails in “Revlon Red” lacquer, painted my lips in “Dior Red” lipstick, owned a red Bill Blass coat and donned a pair of red suede Charles … Read More

[/lightbox]What makes a horse such an intoxicating animal is the combination of extreme sensitivity, majestic beauty and soft love. This 1000 pound animal can feel the touch of a tiny insect, hear the sound of an acorn on a barn roof, smell an animal cloaked by trees and see the flicker of a tiny movement in the distance. To ride a horse with grace, you … Read More
