Finding the Balance Between my Modern and Vintage Lives - Living in the the real Mid-Century, Eames, Woodcuts, Sculpture and Ceramics


I am perfecting the Mid-Century surroundings, internal Vintage Man that I am and the modern world around me.  Overwhelming confidence is building to a crescendo which I know no crest, no finish, and no end stop.  Finally I am in a situation of moving in forward motion with the confidence of the question of knowledge and the pursuit of a new beginning. Each step is forward and only small obstructions are in my way.

 As I dig for items and my way I am again comfortable in my own skin. This allows me to again deeply care for others and spend less time worrying about my fate and obliterating and sense of selfishness. I have always been a giver and I need not much from others. Crazy I know, but I have not found one in years who can read me and assume the equal role of giving to me, in kindness or in their actions and thing which you could call equal to my giving to them.  I do not require the equality, although many say I should demand it as I am easily used for my overextending kindness and compassion.
In this rearranging of my life I find objects and friends who fill this void, if indeed there is one. The objects are newly found from years back in my collection and the friends are coming out of the woodwork! Again friends this week came from out of town and went out of their way to find my newer surroundings and spend time in concern and celebration of our friendship. For this I love them like sisters and brothers and will be in their dept forever. It brings me back the pleasures, laughter, love and decadence we enjoyed. It makes me act more normal than a man in a classic tragedy in a Opera.
The objects  which bring me back are like new found discoveries bringing back the memories of their find and how and when I displayed them. Here are a few Vintage items to share.
