Last Friday I went with my SVA residency program on a gallery stroll to visit the Chelsea galleries.  After a while I found myself taking photos of the people and their relationship to the pieces. 
It made for a great photo treasure hunt... not that the art itself wasn't enough. 
this was my favorite find...

house sitting has its perks
until you leave the dogs alone for a bit and they decorate the apartment all by themselves... (hehe)

Do you ever see a photograph and you wish you were the one to have taken it?
I do. 

Going, Going, Gone... by Jessica Peterson

Last week I threw myself a going away party (yep, I throw myself parties).
I moved to New York this morning and I will be here for 4 months with a possible extension.
I love most of these people

See ya Salt Lake. 
I am missing you already.
