this week:
work, food, sleep, portrait commissions, Pulp Fiction, thinking about the new James Bond, Christmas gifts, work (i smell like gravy and coffee),..the other stuff is personal.

I just saw this image and the attached journal. It's an upsetting story and I just wanted to pass it on to try to help this man.



Here is the story as written in the journal entry:
"On this picture is as most of u know my brother

On the 23.02.2007 he was kidnapped in district part of city Sofia in Bulgaria...after that we lost all trace of him regard the fact that the kidnappers were arrested only 3 hours after it happened.
Few days ago I got a news that the kidnappers where released duo lack of evidence, I think that is crazy! Because they have done it in front of 20 people in a restaurant and the inspectors found his blood in their car...they even admit that they kidnapped, beet him and after that trow him from the car....
Me and my family are devastated, it seems that everyone stooped looking for him and that he doesn't exist even for justice ;(

I don't know what to do any more, so i decided to post his picture here, some of u my watcher's are from Bulgaria so if there is chance that someone saw him, or if u can post his picture somewhere where people could recognize him I would be thankful.

For u others:

By posting a comment, journal...or u can maybe help in finding something about him...more people read this and see his picture...the bigger is the chance to find him.

feel free to post this picture anywhere if it can help...."

Hello there.

I found a new artist, well he's not new but I came across some of his work recently and I wanted to share it.
His name is Bruce Gilden. See one of his works here : [link]

Here is the url to his gallery, for some reason I couldn't link to it:

Click "photographers" at the top of the page, find his name on the list and click the picture on the left to see his profile and a portfolio

He lives in NYC but takes photographs all around the world. The thing I like about his work is that it's instantaneous and he actually gets in people's faces and catches them in real moments. You feel like you're there and seeing secrets of these strangers lives. It's intriguing and I find his photographs beautiful. Everything is sort of stripped back and you see things as they really are.. well, at least your version of real...

I'm 20 years old as of 2am.

Today I'm a year older, I've matured (slightly), made some new friends, created lots of art, watched countless hours of television (hehe), was heartbroken (two times), ran around, ate lots of chocolate, tried and tried and failed many times(only to fail some more), and alas made it through somehow... a couple scars, but no cavities, despite the chocolate.
