Bio

One summer night, out on a flat headland, all but surrounded by the waters of the bay, the horizons were
remote and distant rims on the edge of space. Millions of stars blazed in darkness, and on the far shore a
few lights burned in cottages. Otherwise there was no reminder of human life. My companion and I were
alone with the stars: the misty river of the Milky Way flowing across the sky, the patterns of the
constellations standing out bright and clear, a blazing planet low on the horizon. It occurred to me that if
this were a sight that could be seen only once in a century, this little headland would be thronged with
spectators. But it can be see many scores of nights in any year, and so the lights burned in the cottages and
the inhabitants probably gave not a thought to the beauty overhead; and because they could see it almost
any night, perhaps they never will.
~Rachel Carson

I’m indecisive, complicated and
compassionate. I’m addicted to the visual
arts and indulge myself in photography,
film, painting, drawing…just about
anything.
I’m just waiting to run away to art
school, but for now I’m stuck in my
shitty town.
