Last weekend I went to 2 amazeballs shows in Palm Springs — Art Fair & Modernism. I totally geeked out, as I knew I would… and I didn’t care how dorky I looked walking through with my camera around my neck. People, this was my mecca.
As I meandered through the shows I snapped photo after photo after photo.
Paintings I wanted to remember…
Love everything about this piece... except the price tag!
sculptures I couldn’t afford…
This piece by Devorah Sperber is made from spools of thread!
pieces of furniture I wanted to replicate…
The sections are connected with zippers and the entire couch can be manipulated like a snake!
and my favorite of all favorites… BRIC-A-BRAC!!!
Does this taste funny to you?
At the end of the day, I was so creatively fulfilled by simply seeing everything that I didn’t feel the least bit sad that I wasn’t actually leaving with anything. I have 222 (yes, that many!) photos of beautiful objects, pieces and musings that I can revisit again and again.
This photo trick is something I’ve been doing for years, when I go shopping. I’ll take a photo of the thing that I’m on the fence about and if I can’t stop looking at the pix a few days later, then I know I need to go back and buy it. It’s kind of like my own Pinterest board. It’s just too dang bad that I didn’t come up with the idea for @Pinterest first… Because, if I had, I’d be able to purchase all of the above
