Sunny Sonoma // part 2

private-pondWelcome to our private pond. We spent most of our time here bathing in the sun, reading, playing games, swimming, drinking, eating, laughing. You name it, we likely did it. I am still in shock that this is where I spent the last four days. That is a VINEYARD in the background, what?!?!

Sunny Sonoma // part 1

Have you ever been to Sonoma? Um, if not, you must go -- it is marvelous there! The reason we headed down was to cheer on our friend Caitlin, who entered herself into her first triathlon ... which happened to me a Half Ironman, you go girl! I was supposed to do it too, but failed to sign-up in time. I figured, if I couldn't race I sure could cheer, and that I did. Do you see how yoked she is? It's no wonder she smashed the course and finished in 5:45, woot! Caitlin-VineMan Caitlin-WineMan

Post Caitlin's race we decided that wine tasting was probably the best thing she could do to recover, so we walked to a beautiful winery just down the road from where we were staying. Did I mention that we got to stay in a house, on a vineyard, that had a private pond? More photos of that to come soon.

Color Study // 001

Color Study 001I know everyone is doing this, this whole color study thing -- but I'm in need of finding some new colors to work with, so here I go!

I also plan on posting a PDF that has all the color call-outs in it for you, so if you would like to use the colors it'll be easier to load them. Buuuut, I am still in California with limited computer/internet access, so hang tight, that'll be up soon! [Photograph by Mark Segal; Styled by Jacquelyn Jablonski via T-magazine]
