This year I decided it is due time I embrace what I truly love. Costume. I have always loved to dress up. Even as a youngin. Over the years I have obtained a huge obscure collection of costume pieces. When I started hooping my collection got bigger. In 2009 I want to take on what might just be my biggest project yet. I would like to do an exhibit using photography and location to capture 20 costumes I am creating within the year. Each costume will have a specific location where it is shot tha...

Been thinking a lot in my thirtyith year about what it means to be an artist. Being an artist is not an easy path. Being an artist comes with a lot including presure and expectation but also it comes with passion and skill. I don't think I could live life any other way than the way that I am living. I love being an artist, I love having the power of creation at my fingertips. I live to create the next project. As I am growing older I am realizing that art is a very broad term. I am ejo...

This Halloween for the first time in three years I left my hoop at home. Every Halloween I fill myself with great expectations of the night. Since I have learned how to hoop I have been performing on this magical night. As much as I love to hoop there is a whole secret world of expectation and pressure that goes with it. This year I wanted to be free of that and just enjoy the holiday like any other party goer. I ventured out with a small group of friends to the castle party in Montique....

Megan E LaBonte is one of my favorite people. She is dedicated to enhancing the community around her through art and hula hooping. Wherever we are around Northampton people come up to say hi to her, to tell her they saw her here or there, to show their appreciation. I think something about her just makes people happy. I am blessed to have gotten to know her on a deeper level, to see where she comes from and her hopes and dreams. She left a trail of bobby pins and missing socks through my life, and somehow these little things are what is most beautiful about her to me. It has been amazing to watch her struggle with her little demons and to remain so passionate about her art and her life. I am inspired by such passion. Life is a mixture of sorrow and epiphany, which we have shared and grown from together. We have parted ways as lovers but my love for her has not diminished, only grown. Megan is a true gift to our community and her light makes the whole world a little brighter. Oh look, she's texting me right now! Some things never change... Shine on you crazy Sassmaster!
