Happy Halloween! I'm an atheist crank, no angels, demons, or ghost s for me, but a girl with fangs, especially when she's putting the bite on another girl, that's a belief system I can bet hehind. Vampire: Coco La Pearl Victim: MIchelle St. Darling
I just discovered Green Wood cemetery, a genuine 19th century cemetery in NY, and I love the place, full of what I like cemeteries to be full of: pompous mausoleums, statuary, and even angels with nipples, like this one. The gal is Alyssa, a model I met on Model Mayhem.
Next to ice cream and a good mille foglie, creme brulee is my favoritest thing to eat in the world. And it's the third element of my you won't live forever, but you'll die happy diet: pork and lox are the other lodestones.
Has anyone done a survey to see if skulls are the most popular tat? I see more skulls with wings, fire, halos, or whatever. I like 'em, so I don't mind. This is a particularly elaborate example.
I love this new public space, made out of the old railroad tracks on the West Side along 10th Avenue. I've gone to visit this park many times since it's opening a few weeks ago, and it's a must-see for any New Yorker!
This was from a shoot with the first of what I call my "leopard girls." I just love women in leopard prints. The model was an actress I met shooting a play that a friend of mine did the music for, an updated version of the Golem story. We still do shoots together.
Bunny Love's been a bad girl, and Lady Ace just has to spank her. This took place years ago (Lady Ace is now in Berlin), and was at some sort of erotic show, can't quite recall the name.
No reason in particular I'm posting this, I just feel like doing it. I was going over some of my old dance work, and came across this shot I did for Heidi Latsky's Riot of Red Dance Troupe. This was shot in the East Village, off 1sr Ave.
Although I intend to be cremated, I'm fascinated by cemeteries, especially stuff like this, gravestones & markers with pictures, sculptures, etc. Hollywood Forever is full of this sort of thing, and I happily wandred there for hours. I especially loved the guy who put his mauseoleum on a private island, complete with ducks & swans swimming around.
One of my favorite places in LA is the Beverly Hills Civic Center, part of which can be seen here. The domed building is City Hall, with is sort of an Arabain art deco fantasia. This was built in the 20s, and then another part was added in the 80s, in a similiar style. It's a lovely public space. with possibly the most beautiful public library I've ever been in. I spent hours photographig in this space, I really loved it.
