quarantining at Sara’s Aunt & Uncles beach cottage and found this sweatshirt and flannel in their eating clothes closet (when guests come over to eat lobster they offer them clothes that can get dirty). GQ asked me to shoot and write about a weeks worth of outfits I put together using the few items I brought and some I unearthed here from Shelly & Bert’s eating clothes selection. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Check @GQ for the full deal. Link in Bio.

JEW EXOTIC – I’m always after something. I’m sure we’re all home buying all sorts of stuff we don’t need but want. Not trying to be a doctor over here but I’m always shopping. When times are wierd I shop. When times are normal feeling I shop too. When i’m feeling broke I still shop. Leaving to quarentine with just a few clothing items I thought wow, i could easily live for months in just these few things. Then I watched Tiger King and went searching for their pink wedding shirts deciding I could really use a pink western shirt in my stable. Not here in Maine but when/if we ever get back to the big island… After much image searching and sleuthing @joncaramanica found me the exact one for $17.50 on the ebay! I passed assuming the poly blend make up (while I’m not a heavy shvitzer, I find blends don’t breathe well). Then I get a DM from @pentimento.shop asking if I’d want this one. I of course did and here we have it with Uncle Bert’s shorts and braces I found in the cottage. I really want to take them with me but I bet they’re his everyday shorts. I want the perfect big pair of jean shorts. So perfectly lived in. Just putting it out there.

in 9th grade armed with my first camera i would shoot tons of license plates. I was in a small yeshiva in the University District of Seattle. I had no idea what flannel was, what weed smelled like nor had I heard of grunge. Yet it was all around me. (Our idea of fun was cutting class and hanging outside hotels to get baseball cards signed by visiting teams). Fast forward years later I’m living in SF and find the coolest old cars with beautiful patina. Maybe it’s the salt from the ocean I don’t know what does it but California, Australia, even Maine has some of the most beautiful beat up old pieces of shit cars that I can look at for days. I wish I could take really nice pics of them with fancy cameras one day. For now I’m fine drooling with the iphone but it could be fun sitting with some look down camera medium format kinda thing. Maybe it’s the sound of the shutter maybe it’s the feeling of pushing down a button maybe it’s waiting til you can see it. I don’t know. I’m not that guy really. I can be though. I don’t own a fancy heavy look down but I’ve been known to shoot film on occasion. Felt emo may edit later but the car is here to stay. I know most y’all don’t come here for this and for that I say open your eyes a bit more. Find beauty in the everyday.
