first artist: Gustav Klimt - Austrian native artist that mixed golf leaf and paint for large scale pieces. He was a  secessionist artist that defied the classical approaches to painting

#1 - “Hope II”  by Gustav Klimt  - one of my favorite collage paintings - inspiration with color and background choice #2 - “ Death and life” also by Klimt - love the play on dark and biblical references to the left with the crosses patching death vs. the light, patchy quiltlike texture to the right #3 - “Judith and the Head of Holofernes” - love the use of gold leaf collaged onto this one

second artist: Lance Letscher - modern working Texas artist who graduated in 80s from the University of Texas and works with collage pieces - not painting usually 

#4 - “Big Eye” - Lance Letscher - this is made using metal scrap parts and is outside the South Congress bookstore - very large mural that “caught my eye”

b said “message me when you wake up” so when i woke up i checked our messages and b texted me a picture of four little booklets patterned with daisies and said “my very best friend (tentative best friend!) that i still need to know better than his door and his plates asked for one and i just said: no.” implied that this is their uni best friend, which i was so happy to hear about, i saw the plates big and white and drying on a rack in his basement apartment, and the dingy door like a fold-up ironing board. also implied that they said no so curtly because the notebooks reminded them of me. i remember the red and yellow books were on top, with a green one extant, don’t remember the color of the last. told me they were in a baking show, i “caught” an episode but it was a recording on my phone and the only thing i knew was that they won the episode--it “paid off” i remember thinking, though i don’t remember what. a field to play soccer in. i asked them about the episode as if i hadn’t watched it and they said “i’m winning!” which was better even than finding out in the first place, because they said it. they told me there were like two people left, which was strange because the episode i “watched” seemed like one of the early ones, but obviously happy. i wish i could remember some of what they won on; i was just so happy they were being appreciated. coffee cake, blackberry tarts?

we were crushed in a small space in my room, where the blue bin of clothes under my bookshelf is, but so enclosed. i was reading their published poetry, and in the text commentary they provided i could see the similarities from what i remembered of the things they prefaced the poems with when they sent them to me originally. i laid the book, which had glossy pages and small black font, down on the floor to read and saw that they called me “friend” in the poems, as if we were pilgrims matching hands. my mom came in and nearly as soon as she started talking i smashed a blue and white vase that does not actually exist on my dresser, she left in disgust and left b to deal with me, which they did:

elsewhere a slide, an awful conveyer belt, “people” saying lines that react to what you’re saying--like the interactive burlesque show h told me about. lines involved declarative statements: you are [blank]. wanted to--eat? some people on conveyer belt, my friend sacrificed two french people by pointing out their suitability in our stead (they only wanted to eat “females” which all four of us “were” but the french people... had more space in their heads, or something) they slithered down to get them and we passed arduously up this seatbelt mountain, still sitting, until we were in the part of the slide that was like a rollercoaster. we were sitting ass in little tin cans like teacups and moving over a clothesline out of the frame. once we got... dumped down a chute? all of the people who had been moving were together with a chalkboard trying to figure out what we “were”--what the statements they made really meant. someone got up in front and drew a diagram of an awful pig where the different parts of the pig’s body corresponded to the things they said about us. the one i remember most is the one that corresponded to the haunches, the thighs of the pig, something like: pulverized, gregarious, kind. giving. we all said bemused again and again: “i am [the thigh word]” trying to figure out if it was true.

and while all this was happening i weakly knocked on b’s chest, the kind of play-slapping you could do with a baby. thought of it as “hitting” asked them to “hit” me back. they “did” eventually but it was more like just pressing on my chest. i laughed--i was really happy--and told them to do it again.

a model of a train suspended as if a fog made up of pin-faults in glass. outside the windows, desolate trampled-on snow, twiggy, ran and ran. the car we were looking at was long and grand, with two major seating areas each with their own two fireplaces, facing each other. one had long tables and chairs, like a library, and the other had furniture like a beach house you’d rent in virginia. white whicker low chairs with bright yellow and pink cushions, the color of peeps. i whisked the image back and forth and asked b what the problem with it was--this was the train that ran between the two of us, and i was asking why they wouldn’t take it. or, someone was asking me again and again and it transformed into my asking them. b zoomed in to the closet, where strange quiltlike scarves hung, and cited the oddness of the patchwork sections, which did not look like faces but were analogous to them. “they’re so ugly!” purple first, than orange, than a little brown thing that was like a face, looked like anpanman.

Somewhere in our garden history, veggie gardens got the short end of the stick. They’ve been typecast as the ugly ducklings of gardening, while ornamental plantings are touted as the swans. Maybe this is due to our American agricultural heritage of mundane, monocultural straight lines: a row of corn here, two rows of beans there. There is no rule book, however, that says our edible gardens can’t be beautiful and a showcase of the neighborhood.

By borrowing design strategies used in ornamental gardening, these goals are easily attainable. Colorful flowering plants, attractive enclosures, and crisp edges are just a few of the details that can transform an ordinary kitchen garden into a masterpiece.

The idea of bringing edible and ornamental gardening together certainly isn’t a new concept. The French have been doing it in their potagers (vege­table gardens) for centuries, providing beauty and bounty in the form of flowers, vege­tables, fruits, and herbs that enrich their gardens and tables throughout the seasons. One of the easiest ways to dazzle the eye in this setting is to throw flowering ornamentals into the mix and play with color.

When choosing a mix of plants, I go for options that offer a wide range of colors and textures. I love to cover the ground with colorful edibles that are also ornamental, like blue-green cabbage, purple basil, and golden sage. Planting organization is the most practical way to approach edibles, so I plant these colorful selections in blocks to create a beau­tiful, quiltlike tapestry.

Just as color was a part of early kitchen gardens so was the element of enclosure. Medieval gardens were often created with a simple wattle fence to distinguish the basic boundaries of the garden. At the same time, cloister gardens were enclosed to signify a place of beauty, meaning, and meditation. By borrowing this ancient design strategy, you can turn your own kitchen garden into an outdoor sanctuary. Enclosure creates an intimate scale for the garden, establishing a sense of privacy and respite while also setting a boundary and keeping focus within the garden.

The best enclosures work with their surroundings. A wrought-iron fence would be appropriate for a front-yard kitchen garden in an urban setting, while a picket fence would blend well with many styles, from New England colonial to rustic. When constructing a stone wall, choose local materials—like limestone in the Midwest or granite in the East—for a timeless, permanent kitchen-garden enclosure.

The options are endless when it comes to using plants for boundaries. Espaliered apple or pear trees can be trained to grow on a brick wall or on wire fences for a see-through effect. A boxwood hedge, a mass of blueberries, and a row of currants are just a few of the other living-fence possibilities. I find that tall perennials and annuals, such as ornamental grasses or cosmos, are excellent for creating privacy screens with seasonal interest. Just be sure to keep annuals and perennials separate in the kitchen garden to make it easier to till and amend your annual beds.

Arrange bunches of bold color.

Vibrant, lush foliage defines a kitchen garden. Plant colorful sections of flowers, vegetables, fruits, and herbs next to one another to achieve a truly dramatic display.

Plant snug beds.

Rather than planting everything in straight rows separated by expanses of soil, consider creating tight planting patterns that will provide an expanse of attractive edibles.

Smooth out the edges.

Clean edges and pathways help define your space. You can also unify garden and home by employing complementary colors and materials (wood and brick, for example).

Define your space.

Fences, walls, and living bor­ders help frame your gar­den. Estab­lish a peaceful outdoor retreat by choosing options that best fit your style.
