The Standard Hotel, Hollywood

lono sweet shop's shaved ice--the best!

I really love The Standard Hotel, Hollywood. They have given me nothing but a lot of good vibes and work that is FUN! Last week I finished a plant installation in their diner and transformed the space. They also have signed up for a plantscription where I come in weekly to provide the diner with fresh flowers and herbs. It really makes the space come alive. I have to say that I think it is the prettiest diner in LA. Doesn't hurt that they feed me Lono's Sweet Shop shaved ice too! Just when I was thinking that summer couldn't get any cooler.

Do you remember back in April when they featured Plants: Our Silent Guardians as their one-month installation? So cool.

 Buried in computer work, but it would be much more fun to be buried in books. Hope you're having a great week and that you had a nice long weekend! 

PLANTS: OUR SILENT GUARDIANS

I am sooo excited to share this with you today and to invite you to come out next Thursday, March 21st for our opening ceremony to help us celebrate the TIGERS TO LILIES installation + collaboration: PLANTS: OUR SILENT GUARDIANS! 

I have been asked to be the artist-in-residence for one month at The Standard Hollywood and I sincerely couldn't be more honored or psyched! As is my nature I knew that I wanted to collaborate with my friends: the amazing artists Lauren Spencer King + Claire Cottrell! Together the three of us have come up with what I can confidently say will be a staggeringly beautiful installation with of course a lot of wild and a lot of depth. You. Have. To. Come!

Furthermore, just to sprinkle all this goodness with even more fun, Claire's BOOKSTAND will have a physical space in the hotel lobby as a pop-up for the duration of the installation 3/21 - 4/21! If you know anything about Claire you know that this will be a most special space with such treasures to read, workshops to attend and lectures to be heard all while sipping on herb-infused refreshments + snacks. So seriously, how exciting is Spring looking? I'll do my best to give you as much info about all of this as it unfolds, OK? 

Thank you Jenni B. + The Standard!

Hi friends! We're back from a really, really lovely trip to Tulum, México! Have you been there? Much more on that later! I have some really dreamy pictures to share with you...

We are having a bit of rain here in LA and I love it. Picked up some brightly blooming acacia to lighten up Cortez today and some really wonderful and steadfast hellebores. Have you seen this kind before? 

I also want to send out a heartfelt thank you to everyone leaving me such nice comments and for your support. It really means a lot to me.

I need your eyes

these are 35mm 

Can you give me three words to describe what you feel/see/think when you see these images? It can be any three words, good or bad. I'd like  to see what you see. Thank you.

Hope you're having a great week so far.

off for work...

from a recent shoot at lovely Claire's house (lucky me too b/c her home is AMAZING). 

So Elijah and I are off for work up in the Carmel/Big Sur (majestic) part of California. I'll be pretty busy shooting and when not doing that will be most likely staring at trees and going on some nice walks with Elijah and V.v. So I just want to wish you a lovely weekend now. See you next week!

and some actual work that has been done (sometimes I spend a tad bit too much time foraging and not necessarily making...oh yes there is a difference).

Hunting & Gathering

 

I'm collecting for inspiration for a new project that I have been commissioned to make. I'm very excited about this one...

Bundle Dyeing!

Wow wow wow! Have you heard of bundle dyeing? Lovely Cheri sent this to me this morning and I haven't stopped thinking about it all day! To be accomplished soon...!

(I think I use the exclamation point a bit too much)

Layered Spring

Nothing to do with flowers, everything to do with impeccable lighting and beautiful styling. I hope that I can take photos like this someday too. Soooo good. Thank you for sharing this with me, Lauren.
