As an artist I was really interested in what everyone's thought labels would be. For the most part I really loved what people had to say and was struck by the generosity of sometimes strangers to reveal some small part of themselves for this project. Everyone that volunteered was included even if their DYMO label was a little on the boring side or their photo not as exciting. So I ask my friend Kevin what his DYMO was going to be and he said 'AGOG'. Kevin, who is no longer with us, was smarter, wittier and better read than the rest of us, and the best he can come up with is 'AGOG'? Jesus Christ. For the first time I told someone that their thought sucked and to come back when they came up with something better. Of course we ended up shooting it Kevin's way. I love this picture of him and have learned to love 'AGOG'. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Lauren Gillettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04158231975470886000noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9001941188770138060.post-56497528346165403822009-10-14T10:28:00.001-07:002009-11-21T17:23:52.798-08:00Blessed<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBsjtNHreAauw-BkKj32WWxKjD7Z3KyfZHXKJaRcIZCLrKjAbYGwWVMTQN6dG8JG8AUxq7Kdb6lV1GiTru0kvWLvc_t4pGsKelE29kr_nW023_yOIXRSpDF_1dgAz1jV-Ui4XzwuRcMJU/s1600-h/Blessed.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBsjtNHreAauw-BkKj32WWxKjD7Z3KyfZHXKJaRcIZCLrKjAbYGwWVMTQN6dG8JG8AUxq7Kdb6lV1GiTru0kvWLvc_t4pGsKelE29kr_nW023_yOIXRSpDF_1dgAz1jV-Ui4XzwuRcMJU/s320/Blessed.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392910820008314210" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">I remember this mom and little girl coming to the studio for their pictures and that the little girl was such a muffin, but unfortunately I can't remember their names. </div>Lauren Gillettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04158231975470886000noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9001941188770138060.post-34983633134596481502009-10-14T10:27:00.001-07:002009-10-16T13:48:35.364-07:00Happiness<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhysvv081lGoJwhH_SEATi14N1I0EPdFM11WkIcOjwE-YZsVx66i8twWKcrFO_rufzEgZRnc1CDtm9GP-dJuZaEKyq9LWqEQt0xvNoqgiSjwu6kFCLXoLMeFzEQnh2RT_vZY4HCVIws7A8/s1600-h/Happiness.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 316px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhysvv081lGoJwhH_SEATi14N1I0EPdFM11WkIcOjwE-YZsVx66i8twWKcrFO_rufzEgZRnc1CDtm9GP-dJuZaEKyq9LWqEQt0xvNoqgiSjwu6kFCLXoLMeFzEQnh2RT_vZY4HCVIws7A8/s320/Happiness.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393301295699632722" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">This beautiful little girl is the youngest in a family of 3 children all of whom I've had the opportunity to paint.
