Memory comes in waves of image, sounds, tastes, smells, and feelings. One of my fondest childhood memories is of walking to the playground of the elementary school I attended with my Pappers; my paternal grandfather, Joseph J. Funyak. Pappers has Alzheimers disease and now lives in a shifting web of memory. In this photo essay, shot on an early September day, I thought of my Pappers as I took a nice slow stroll along the Santa Cruz Boardwalk and Wharf in Santa Cruz, California. Always, Larissa

In response to cultural desire for instant gratification, lack of respect and knowledge of crafts-personship, process, technique and artistry, I invite you to Do It Yourself...or hire a professional to help create your personal style. Custom ensembles created with second hand, antique, vintage, retro, and repurposed materials may be a slow process, but I think you will find the results timeless. In this book I embrace positive body image and what it might look like to approach fashion industry and consumership slowly...in a more sustainable way. That will never go out of style. This book...

Nestled in the many coves along the California coastline are quaint towns and villages like Pescadero. Founded as an official town only in 2010, Pescadero has a long history, with tombstones in the cemetery reaching back to the 1800's. Spending a sweet afternoon at the beach I couldn't help but notice how few anemones could be found in the tide pools. Those I did find were pale yellow in color with a slow response to my touch. In general I have noticed fewer anemones in tide pools I have encountered recently along the coast. With soft sand beneath me, I pondered this with the sea birds while...
