im swooning.

what a lovely day. not only did i just pick up my new favorite cd - silversun pickups swoon, but i also fell in love with an artist. i just had to know who is responsible for their cd cover art. darren waterson is absolutely breathtaking. i just want to swim in his work and listen to sp all day long. unfortunately that cant happen, but at least its nice to be surprised twice in one day and with such visually and auditorially stimulating pieces.

darren waterstein is a california native, but has trained in germany and italy. he currently resides in san fransisco. i cant believe i didnt discover him before my trip to the museum of contemporary art san diego - although i am not finished making to all the fabulous museums in san diego. im just barely getting started. i cant wait to find his art that is on permanent collection there.


another museum where i can find his work is at the fine arts museums of san fransisco. i will be in san fransisco in june and i think that is going to be on my list of one of the places we just have to visit. unfortunately we will miss the warhol exhibit by a month.

i really can't remember the last time that watercolors have caused me to drool. or a song like catch and release truly reminded me of why im swooning lately... i will leave you with my second favorite off the album. reminds me of getting lost in certain places but always finding my way back to home. and home always is where you have left your heart.
