CRAFT

Sometimes I like to make clothes...

The pictures above are of my friend + sometimes muse, Yesim Ak,

wearing a few pieces I crafted,

and one of my beloved ponytail necklaces.

She is beyond elegant, and the perfect model for my creations.

I like to call my very occasional and happenstance outfits, NUNN.

Pan Yuliang

I just finished the book, "The Painter from Shangai,"

by Jennifer Cody Epstein. I loved this story, based on

the real life of Pan Yuliang, a prostitute, and concubine turned controversial, revolutionary Chinese Painter.

I recommend this book, especially to all fellow painters.

Here is a link to a news article about the life of Pan Yuliang.
