This is Vanessa's personal tumblrzine, for family and friends everywhere. I like all sorts of stuff, and I like to share.
If you'd like to see my work work, skip on over to www.vanessaholden.com.
In my real life you can find me at vanessaholden[at]mac[dot]com; in studios and meetings & offices quite (but not too) often; most happily at the beach; at Pearl Paint buying stuff for a project; at La Colombe or The Adore, & sometimes (just quietly) at Beard Papa, but then I don't like to talk about that particular addiction.
Mother’s Day has me thinking about mothers and daughters: these pics of The Squirrel and I are separated by thirty years and thousands of miles (mine taken in Strathfield @ ‘76, hers at Frances’ in Sag Harbor the July 4th w/end of ‘04): the same but different, inextricably bound to one another. So strange to be a daughter and a mother at once, but that’s what I am I guess. God I love my Squirrel. I really, really love her: she’s the coolest girl I know.
