My Baggage

+ Tin, once containing mints.  Now business cards, designed by Nubby Twiglet.  The rounded corners fit perfectly

+ Moleskine, painted to distinguish it from its sisters

+ D & G sunglasses, found randomly, whose shape mimics a contemptous brow forrow

+ Anna Sui compact

+ Sequined wallet, from Pearl River Mart, filled with foreign currency.

+ Sequined scarf.

+ Giant book.  In this case Hitch 22, which is tragic and beautiful and hilarious and very good

+ Perfume that smells like baked goods

+ Mark Ryden pin, doled out by the man himself at his opening

+ Passel of microns

+ iPhone, much dropped, with sticker of my drawing 3M made for a digital art show in Brazil

+ The bag is an Alexander McQueen, in the style of Jack the Ripper, and is quite large enough for all one’s super-villain needs

    2 Reais?! I always use it (plus a few nickels) to take a subway around Sao Paulo. You wouldn’t stand still here indeed! =) Love your blog and your art. Have a great day and keep up the awesome work.

    This is one of my favorite posts ever. I especially love the passel of microns. I’m on a hunt now for one of my own with a kiss lock clasp.
