"Your voice matters." A tiny collage by California-based artist Christine Mason Miller is displayed in a French miniature scientific globe. Visit Christine's etsy shop to see her latest creations or to order a copy of her inspiring book Ordinary Sparkling Moments. Also pictured is a Sevilla processional crown made of Mexican silver, against a backdrop of books.
Irish actor Gabriel Byrne inscribed his Pictures in my Head book for me when we met in 1996 in San Francisco. Salon has just bestowed Byrne with the title of "rugged intellectual" in their "sexiest men living" list.






Wow her work is stunning. You asked about the documents and reproducing them - well I was in London last week on business and found a firm that can digitally print them on vintage fabrics - so watch this space and your postbox :)

I agree, Gabriel Byrne is sexiest man alive (well, one of them anyway). He still has a trace of his Dublin accent too. xoxo

Very cool! Gabriel Byrne was a wonderful King Arthur in the PBS (Lincoln Center) concert version of Camelot.

What a lovely tableau, you! And the Frida book at the top didn't escape my notice :)
What a gorgeous crown! Goes in theme with 'heavy is the head that wears the crown' from yesterday's post.
And Gabriel, well, what can one say? Rugged, yes! Handsome, yes! And let's not forget talented.
Sexy is a given.
Lucky you, to have met him!
Enjoy your Parisienne day mon ami xoxo

Ooh! Meeting a future "sexiest man living"? Now that's a good memory to have. Thanks for linking to that list. Now I can be in good company with thinking that Michael Sera is adorable.
And an interesting list it is. (So much better than that dumb People magazine list. Bo-ring!)
