french obsession

right now i'm obsessed with everything french: the music, macarons, and especially niki de saint phalle!
come back tomorrow to see my "niki de saint phalle-o-bile "
must watch: this little video of niki  blowing up art with husband, jean tinguely and shooting a rifle at her bleeding paintings in malibu canyon, 1961.... sooo good!!!!

Niki de saint phalle-o-bile! Love it! That video is amazing – what a couple. Kim, I've been smiling my head off looking at all your posts this morning. Have been through two cups of coffee in the process. You are such a clever woman. The woodland band is completely gorgeous – I'm absolutely chomping at the bit to see them at Gorman! The twig shapes are beautiful – and always love a peek into your work area. Love your cactus stand!
