"I think photography is editing, start to finish- editing life, selecting part of it to stand for the whole," Robert Adams.

Walker Evans once told some students, "I think artists are collectors, figuratively. I've noticed my eye collects."

A list of things I like: laying in grass, snail mail, getting red lipstick on my teeth, my shitty Mazda, people watching, libraries, falling down for no apparent reason, five o'clock shadows & beards, driving aimlessly, instant photography, dollar clothing, escapist narcotic practices, breakfast, skin, cute laughs, motel rooms, wit, the smell of wood, trailer park culture, all things tacky, lockets, drunk girls who throw up on the subway, collections, masochism, garage sales, color theory, camping, bear hugs, text messaging, wine, whiskey, snow that falls slowly, art fags, 1970's couches, English Romanticism, Latin America, the fleeting, dive bars, hobos, station wagons, road trips, peaches, wearing low cut shirts

Artists that make me ache: Todd Hido, William Eggleston, Robert Frank, Stephen Shore, Hopper, Courbet, Goya, JMW Turner, Friedrich, Constable, Rauschenberg, Joseph Cornell, Munch, Lucian Freud, Nikki S. Lee, Alec Soth, Robert Adams, Nan Goldin, Mitch Epstein, Uta Barth, Rothko, Ryan McGinley, Jeff Wall, Joel Sternfeld
