Idaho Springs (revisiting, IG for Lumbar)

Hi Lumbar peeps. Here is a slice of my Idaho Springs set I posted on Instagram today. Thoracic+ has already seen these.

2019 rethrowbackcap

Happy March y’all. Last month was slow for posting as anyone who’s paying attention knows I’ve been really sick. Huge thank you for all the well wishes! The month also seemed to just fly by. We’re already in month 3 of ‘23.

I have some things to share with Thoracic+ that I’m looking forward to putting together. I also have some cool commissions that I’m looking forward to getting to in the next couple of days.

Until then, here is a playful casual recap of some of t...

Stagnant Plight

Ask and you shall receive.

A few patrons commented on my Thoracic post yesterday asking to see the stop motion video I made to offset some antsy-ness I’m feeling being trapped in Colorado for several months.

It took me like 6 hours to make. I also had shot these stills like 9 months ago in Death Valley. I was aware there was a small chance I would ever even do anything with the photos and was mostly just enjoying my time scampering in and out of the borax-saturated hills of a ...

Lots of life in this swamp.... Pranaaa

How I am enjoying my snow day

Editing desert pics in the warmth. Hitting the road back up to the front range tomorrow before the roads get any worse.

High Meadow pt. II (Thoracic+)

Ok here we go ;)

To make up for earlier. I'm not gonna not post my hospital nudes. Patreon bugs be damned. One of the nurses on my team 100% walked in on me taking the post-op nipple pic. She appreciated it. What an angel. Hotel pic is me still slightly fucked up on sedatives and feelin' it. 

The second half of my High Meadow set for Thoracic+ is queued up.

Made it!

I took a hospital nude or two for you, but alas patreon will not let me post any photos right now via the mobile app, mobile web, nor the desktop site. So you’ll just have to use your imagination! And take it up with them.

Stunting into the New Year like

Lenticular Lentils

Oh whoa, shooting and posting within a day? That's wild. I took these last night on a whim just testing in camera image distortion using a lenticular lens sheet. It was my first time shooting since Valley View back in November, which in turn was my first time shooting since arriving in Colorado in October.

That is something else that is definitely wild. I haven't been so slow to create ever before since I started doing this in 2018. The intersection of all the things and my health has m...

In the home stretch // On My Way!

Happy Winter Solstice you gorgeous and resplendent human beings. I took a surprise hiatus on account of the sudden bout of COVID that also afforded me a bonus prize of one day visit to the hospital for steroids. I was wholly dead to the world for a solid 4 or 5 days. I’m finally coming up for air now although I reckon I’ll be a MESS for a couple weeks. Super wonderful great timing with holidaze. Not because I celebrate with family and now can’t but because I don’t so it’s just alrea...

Pining

Edited these also shot last year. I pretty much avoided processing any portraits for a while because it's so much more vulnerable for me than sharing my rear end. But I'm feelin' it. So we can feel it together. To contrast my "Introspect" series published yesterday for Thoracic+

For Lumbar+ as I'll probs add these to the igs ya digs

Introspect (6)

How does fabric confine and suppress?

I am participating in a fundraiser via the Venus Collective where 100% of proceeds from the next Venus de Tierra tour will be donated to an organization promoting women’s civil rights in Iran. More details will be announced later this week. For now I’m sharing a few images that I made during a pain flare day in fall 2021 in Virginia that illicit similar feelings regarding one’s relationship with fabric and what it does and does not cover up and how that might effect one’s feelings of ...

Winter (8)

The transition to winter and the cold and lack of sun it brings always get me bad. Then add the holidaze and the daylight savings BS and you’ve got, as my friend likes to say, “a very sad soup going.”

I often combat these depressive states with creativity and schemes. Before I broke my entire fucking spine, I would spend each winter planning my trips to warmer climates for the season. This year marks 5 whole entire years of being unable to lean on that. On the ability to “fuck ...

Zion Lion (uncensored from IG // mini set for Lumbar+)

From this spring during a very busy day in the park. I was smitten to find some spots pr solitude to cozy up and stretch out amongst this stark rock.

Silver City

Self shot in Death Valley. Currently in a  r e a l   h o u s e  with  w a l l s  staying at some friends' place while they travel so I'm having a relaxing time editing to distract from annoying muscle cramps and listening to some albums in full. 

Is there an album out there that you absolutely cannot listen to without playing the whole thing in order from start to finish? 

A few of mine off the top of my hea...
