I met Kathy Hattori in New York at a textiles conference. After we started talking, we realized we lived about 20 minutes from each other in Seattle. She does some really cool stuff around using organic colors and dyes for fabrics and other uses. She hopes to make exponential change by integrating sustainable and regenerative practices and materials throughout the entire supply chain.

After a little hassle at the border crossing, I had a great time in Vancouver, BC. Highlights included checking an art gallery in a converted house, having breakfast with Madeleine Shaw of Lunapads, and visiting the Museum of Anthropology.

I'm always intrigued when I come across this photo in Fremont. I finally was stuck at a red light long enough to focus and shoot. I have no idea what the story is behind this sculpture, but it's rich with expression and style. Looks like I have some research to do.

Thanks to Steve and Marni for hosting me away from the city for a weekend. It was nice to leave the computer behind for a little bit. I loved the farm.

Steve looking at an classic Olympus OM1-n. One of my favorite SLR camera bodies.
The day I left, Steve was preparing for a bonfire to set intensions for 2014. I took a quick break from tossing firewood to capture this moment.
