Hey there little red riding hood


Come Nightfall 14 x 17 Graphite and charcoal

Like so many others, the Grimm fairy-tales of Little Red Riding Hood are all too familiar. But I've always had a wandering curiosity as whether or not she was actually the big bad wolf. So, in mid 2011, I created an illustration (seen in this post) that conceptualized the metamorphosis of souls between girl and wolf. And similarly with this new piece, I wanted to cohesively emphasize the possibility of her own formidable transformation come nightfall.

Wild Thing... I think I love you

When a quasi-sporadic jaunt had us regaling any amount of apathy, my lax interpretation of frugality was tested.

So there I was, attempting a silent negotiation, yes-no-no-yes. And just like that, the holier-than-thou shoe gods had me by Gheppetto ’s strings, and were yet again exultant. In every conceivable ( shoe predicament ) way, it seemed a publicized threat to some bizzarro stylistic-existence, and obviously some things are beyond control. In the silver lining, there’s an upside to this inadvertent gluttony because these powerhouse Maryjane’s--with their patent leather and subtle contrasting edge--will always be there, for all those untamed days ahead. Seriously, there's more to me than just savage kicks... but in the words of Carrie Bradshaw, I suppose one day, "I will literally be the woman who lived
