bohocrush featured artist: Jan Ligthart
We are all artists in some way whether we know it or not. From a cook, a farmer, a fashion designer, a dancer, to a tulip breeder like Jan Ligthart, i love to appreciate the art in other people’s passions. I found Jan (pronounced Yan) through the film The Botany of Desire. I learned a lot about the history of the tulip, a controversial little flower at a point in time, and I was immediately attracted to Jan’s love for breeding beautiful and exotic tulips. There is SO much more to this film and i suggest you watch it if you’re at all interested in the evolution of plants to be desired by humans. The film is based on a book by Michael Pollan, which is a lovely read.

Jan is a self taught breeder and has been growing tulips for over 30 years He is one of Holland’s most successful breeders.

every new tulip has a family tree. This flower in particular, the Andre Rieu, was made from a mother that was pink
How does one breed a tulip? like this…

it’s a threesome with Jan acting as the conduit of sex between two flowers. He removes pollen from one flower with it’s Pistil (the female reproductive part) and rubs it to the stamen (male reproductive part) of another flower in hopes of creating magnificent variations in the Tulip’s offspring.
I never knew flowers could be so beautifully sexual!


I had never given much thought to how such beautiful flowers can be created by the curiosities and artistic vision of a human. I always imagined that nature was the artist and now i see that there can be a beautiful collaboration between humans and nature.

After researching his tulip farm and gaining a better understanding about the breeding of tulips, i’m curious how bees affect the development of Jan’s tulips with their own methods of pollination. Bees are another beautiful artist and contributor to the variety among flowers.


I love the mystery behind the breeding. 5 years of growing before the plant will flower and then Jan gets to see if the variety created is at all what he intended to create. If the result is not what he wanted then it is back to square one with pollination and another 5 years of waiting to see what will become of his daily love and care for these flowers. This is an art form that requires great patience with the process. To me it would be like the ultimate tease to an orgasm

i’m curious.. if only 1 in 1,000 tulips makes the cut, then what happens to the other tulips? are the used as compost and fertilizer for other generations of flowers? Some day i’d like to visit Jan’s tulip farm and ask him the variety of questions that arose while researching for this post. If that happens i will be sure to revisit this post with a new perspective and share it with all of you
From pollination to point of sale, a new tulip breed can take up to 20 years to develop. It must live up to the standards of the flower industry in reproducing offspring, disease resistance, durability, and beauty. As many artist, Jan breeds tulips because it what he LOVES to do, and in doing so is trying to make a living with his creations.

Created by nature’s variation, or pollinated by the hands of an artist, i will look at tulips in a much different way from now on. I am thankful that Jan continues to follow his passion with flowers and i hope that there will be many beautiful variations to come from his efforts. I wasn’t able to find a link of contact for Jan on the internet, but i will graciously send the most loving energy and adoration to Jan and his tulips with hopes that they will feel the love. And i’d like to take a moment to send a big shout out to mother earth for being a beautiful facilitator of creation among many art forms. fuck yeah planet earth
with love,

boho feature: so grateful for give it to me raw!
I remember a couple of years ago I was member 49 of this new and amazing community, give it to me raw. ” A raw food community for people who are passionate about harnessing the power of raw food and holistic living.
Our community is a place for support – a place to share and grow.” They are now 10,000 strong and still growing.

Why raw food? I know that it is not for everybody, but let me tell you why I love raw food.
To me it is sexy, it cleans the body, it provides vitality and clear mind, focus, and awareness. I know right! How could they!
no seriously, if you have not attempted a lifestyle like this before, I know it’s practically impossible to think how some veggies and fruit can satisfy your insatiable appetites.

if you were to give it enough effort, you would find that it totally does!
I’m not here to tell you that you have to try raw foods. No worries, if it’s not your cup of tea, then I hope you know that I will still love and appreciate you either way. I’m here to simply express my love and gratitude. I love to write, and part of this journey is to share and express the things that rock my world!

Lately I have returned and have been hanging out more. Some really amazing people from all over the world are frolicking this place. Why? because it’s supported by a philosophy, no haters, no judgement, they are there to support each and every single person who wants to add raw to their lifestyle. There are always extreme individuals that hold on tightly to what they think should be right for everybody, and guess what, this is not that type of community. They welcome any level of a curious raw mind with open arms!
Today when I woke up I was CRAVING, and I mean CRAVING lettuce wraps. Seems like every time I clicked around I was viewing another delicious and beautiful meal. When shone mentioned that we were going to Whole Foods, I knew that today was going to be a lettuce wrap day! hooray! I love to get excited about the foods that I am going to eat!
I’m not 100% raw, and who knows if I will ever achieve that. That is part of this epic journey, and I am along for a beautiful and delightful sexy ride.

if you should decide to sign up for the community, make sure to add me
I’m a happy girl right now with a belly full of lettuce wraps, and even shone ate them!
blissfully yours
georgette
To make this recipe:
♥ first look in the fridge and see what you have. next make a list and go to the store. organic tastes the best, but I know that it’s not available for everybody, do your best, wash your produce.
♥ next cut up all of your produce, make sure to cut lots of different shapes, it adds to the textures and to the way the food feels in your mouth. I’m all about the sensory delights!
♥ you can use kale, collard greens, romaine, or any nice green leafy produce for your wrap.
♥ take a medium sized bowl and mix some of your ingredients with some braggs, olive oil, pepper, sea salt, etc.
♥spread the veggie mixture onto your leaves
and enjoy!
in case you missed it from my recent post, I love this raw food recipe book!
bohocrush featured artist: Curious Josh
I can’t tell you how many times i’ve gone to the most fantastic event and tried to describe the magic and excitement to a friend, but simply couldn’t put words to how spectacular it truly was. When i first ran across Curious Josh’s website i was delighted by his ability to capture the excitement and participation of the crowd, the energy of the performers, and the overall magic of any event he was photographing. I began following his twitter for updates of his adventures in photo land. Josh puts in that extra amount of love needed to truly capture live events through photography. Because i find so much love in his work, i’ve decided to feature a collection of some of my favorite Curious Josh photos, but i encourage you to check out his website for full galleries. enjoy the love!
burning man 2008:
This burn was the year of my first playa adventure, and my first bohocrush photo shoot. i shot on those metal wings in the photo below. lots of love and memories at burning man 2008.

After months creating the temple, Shrine's still laughing. We love Shrine.

Arrowone, Freeland, and wings

curious josh
He is such a cutie. it’s nice to see the face of the man behind the lens
Lightening in a bottle 2008:
This year will be my first time at LIB and i am SO excited. perhaps i will run in to Josh and give him a big hug and a thank you for being such a magical photographer. Are any of you going to LIB this year?

Yard Dogs have feathers


a real life dream catcher!
this looks like it has a beautiful story behind it.

low and behold.. it’s our girl danger booty and joe

and the eargasm provider.. random rab
Edwardian Ball, Los Angeles:
josh described this event: “Imagine Edward Gorey stories enacted live on stage, and almost a thousand people dressed in Gorey-an style.” i looove a reason to get in a costume!

What an amazing costume. I’m curious as to who this is.. if i’m not mistaken i’ve seen him in a lot of the different event photos that josh has taken


I love the capture of all of the performer’s emotions in this photo.

Art of change~ Inaugural ball with Mutaytor:
Mutaytor puts on a spectacular show! The magnitude of energy at this event must have been sensational.

Karis.. you rock my world

monica fernandez.. also a world rocker and bright light shiner.



Electric Daisy Carnival 2009:
what a MASSIVE event. Giant stage, ocean mass of a crowd, performers, and wonderful art, i had never heard of the electric daisy carnival unti i saw Josh’s photos.


out of the hundreds of people in the crowd, he captured this.. loving this love!

The first time i ever saw these beautiful metal creatures was in Georgette and Kaycee’s photo shoots, before i had ever been to burning man. i love them.. such beautiful pieces of art.


what an awesome display of fire for a stage
Coachella 2009:
Another event that i have not yet explored (in person). I have always wanted to go to Coachella and with The Do LaB there i want to go even MORE! i love the art, energy, and passion that The Do LaB puts into their event creations.


SERIOUSLY AMAZING! what in the world is this giant hand thing and what does it do?


i just want to kiss that adorable bucket face.


Roger has such an amazing stage presence





Lucent L’amour 2010:
i really wish i could have been in LA for this event. From these photos and the stories i’ve heard from friends who attended, i know it was as spectacular as i had imagined it to be. @JordanisCreativ does an amazing job getting the word out for the Do LaB events and @CuriousJosh has complimented that with his photos, making me squirm and wish i could make it to all of their events.


I love it when there is beautiful art to stimulate my mind at an event. I do love the musicians and performers, but the extra touch is the world created around me.. the whimsy that allows my mind to be transported to another place.



i’ve been in this moment before. Where you’re so elated and lifted by the energy that it is expressed all over your face. bliss!


i think this is my FAVORITE of the Lucent photos!!



BASSNECTAR.. whomp whomp



YES PLEASE!

Josh, thank you for being an amazing creator and catcher of butterflies in this universe. I am so excited to follow your adventures online and in the real world. I can’t wait to give you the biggest boho hug when our paths cross. wishing you love and adventure in your world.
If you want to follow along and get to know josh’s world in your own whimsy, be sure to check out his website and find him on twitter. I hope you enjoyed this photo adventure.
much love and gratitude,

bohocrush featured artist: Xavi
The artists that i choose to share on this blog are all creators that i find inspiring. I choose them because their art speaks to me on a deeper level of admiration and i want to share what has moved me with no intention other than to show love for the beauty of life and creativity.
I first came across Xavi’s work while looking at the symbiosis website for their 2009 gathering. Unfortunately i was not able to attend the festival, but i was exposed to many wonderful artist through their listings on the web. I felt activated by Xavi’s work and through online communications he has demonstrated to be a very kind, charismatic, and loving being with a great variety of mediums and techniques in his creations. enjoy!

This is the graffiti mural that he did for Symbiosis Gathering in 2009. This is also the first image i saw of Xavi and was instantly made curious to explore more.

i would love to see this piece in person, it is 8×5ft! i bet it’s magnificent. To browse some of Xavi’s work with a larger view you can click on his name under the gallery here. The detail in this speaks to my mind in fractal languages and the vibrancy of his work exudes so much love!

I can imaging this place as a most blissful reality, a wonderland of sorts. Exponentially growing in beauty and soothing the soul with a rainbow of colors and vibrations. Could you imagine swimming in these waterfalls? This is what i would describe as pure magic.
titled: DJ Voodoo
What kind of music would this dj play?

Along with the 3 pictures after this one, this makes me want to dance. If i could paint a picture of the energy i feel, the activation i recieve, when i’m dancing and full of good vibrations at a festival.. these pictures would best describe the source of my activation.


Xavi takes my mind to another world. The connectivity and vision of community seems strong in his characters and community among all kinds of beings is something that means the world to me.

i love seeing art at all levels of creation. From descriptive words, an idea sketched in a note book, or a finished painting or sculpture, i find beauty in the creative processes. Xavi’s sketches are no exception and some of the stories he has for his sketches are delightful.
Xavi wrote: “i had a dream i was running around in a drained coral reef, very colorful, and these little frog-lizards were running at my feet guiding me.”

from graffiti, paintings, sculptures, structures, clothing, and other objects, i think it’s safe to say that Xavi can create wondrous art from pretty much any material he chooses.

In 2008, Xavi was the creator and art director of “The Stargate Portal Room” at ‘Temple’ nightclub in San Francisco.


Imagine seeing the work of an artist brought to life through architecture/design. I’m convinced that Xavi would make the most epic structures for a festival
(i couldn’t find any information stating that he already has done so)


i would love to play in a venue that he designed and created. Who knows, maybe some day i will!

As i explored the avenues of Xavi’s creative outlets, i was filled with excitement when i found clothing, surfboards, and didgeridoos designed by him!

amazing festi and burning man wear. Xavi.. i LOVE your creations!!


I love the sounds of Didg, and to have such beautiful art on an instrument surely would heighten the beauty of the sound coming out of it.

I have yet to surf, but i intend to learn and when i do i would love to have myself a board designed by Xavi.. so beautiful!

Xavi, thank you for being an inspiration. Your creations in all avenues are beautiful and uplifting. I am thankful to have come across your work and i look forward to following your blissful adventures, and i have a big boho hug for you should out paths ever cross.
You can connect with Xavi and follow his adventures online. I look forward to inviting him into the planet. stay tuned my loves.. the playground is coming
with Love and gratitude,

bohocrush featured artist: Tyson McAdoo “i kinda want to draw you naked”
i came across Tyson’s work on tumblr, a place where i gather and share inspiration often. As soon as i saw his work i knew i had to share this magnificent creator with all of you boho blog readers. I enjoy the sexy, pinup, fetish, and burlesque styles that i see in Tyson’s work. Upon visiting his website i decided that this man quite possibly has the most awesome “about” section i’ve ever read. i hope to see this wolf-man’s work in person some day.

Something about these images makes me feel like these girls were live models.. I’d love to see the real women (if they in fact do exist) and compare how their musings translated into drawings.



Those stilettos are killer! I’d love to see some erotic foot fetish drawings from Tyson.. toe sucking, fucking, and all. I’m always curious if an artist like this has a secret naughty sketch book for a more X-rated nature
I love that some of these girls are more life like and some of them have a more cartoon feel, but all of the varying styles portray an alluring sexy goddess that, cartoon or not, i like to see naked. Working behind the walls of Marvel, DC, WildStorm, and Dark Horse comics, as well as an on-air designer at Cartoon Network, Tyson seems to be traveling quite a magnificent path as an artist. Although, i must say that his adult content is my favorite, it’s striking and tantalizing in a way that i’ve never experienced in any comic animation (so far).

I read an interview with Tyson touching on the fact that some of his work was used in Britney Spears’ “Circus” tour! I love that he branched out and tapped into an audience that he didn’t find typical to his normal following.
It’s always a good thing when an artist i admire has a book of their work. If i can’t quite afford a print or an original piece, a gathering of their work in a book is the next best thing to me. This beautiful book is now on my wish list!!


i don’t know if these girls will cook me breakfast, give me a lap dance, or spank me, either way, i can’t get enough of Tyson’s work.. i love it!


This must be one of his many “angles” of inspiration. haha i’m LOVING his beard.. so sexy!

After exploring Tyson’s website I’ve decided that i “kinda want him to draw me naked”, maybe someday that will happen, for now I’ll just enjoy his work and i hope that you too resonate with this fantastic artist.. and his sexy beard ![]()
much love,
kendra
bohocrush: featured artist Danni Shinya Luo
a visual treat brought to you by: @nopantsdance
i love it when my favorite artists and performers introduce me to other amazing artists. I found Danni’s art through The DoLaB’s event Lucent L’amour . If you haven’t yet experienced the collection of artists that make up TheDoLaB you can get a taste in LA on February 13th at the Shrine Expo Hall.. check out their website for more details.. they are an 18+.. rain or shine event that will blow your mind
I was so pleased to find Danni’s creations. On her blog she describes her art as “symbolic portrayals of psychological tension/conflicts. Represented by fluid, organic feminine figures with watercolor and mix media. Inspired by nature, human fears & obsessions, high fashion and music.” Have a look:

bohocrush featured artist: Andrew Jones
a perspective by: @nopantsdance

As i further explore my own creative avenues i am exposed to so many magical artist who lift and inspire me. Andrew Jones is one of those artists. I have been aware of Andrew’s art for several years, but had not further explored his work until i saw the cover of Random Rab’s album aRose: This image made me want to go further down the rabbit hole and see what Android Jones was creating.

Andrew has done a lot of art work for some pretty amazing artists, such as:

Beats Antique

Bluetech

David Wilcocks

Bassnectar
I love it when a music maker and an outstanding visual artist collaborate, it makes for a stimulus of so many senses. I have not yet seen Andrew collaborate live, but i intend on making that experience happen soon
I have discovered so many phenomenal and inspiring visual creations by andrew and with those findings i stumbled upon an amazing piece of software called Alchemy.
It is being developed as “a way to explore and experiment with alternative ways of drawing”. I think it’s an incredible tool and i can’t wait to see what comes of it as it develops further.
One of my favorite things about Andrew’s art is that every time i revisit a piece i see something new. The colors, layers, love, and energy he puts into his work is outstanding. These are some of my favorites:

Basura sangrada
I read that the Basura sangrada was the concept up for the 2008 burning man temple.

LIB sunrise; random Ram 2008
How magical would it be to see andrew make this while random rab played a sunrise set at LIB?!!!

Pica flora; DNA lounge san francisco

Adam Bomb

black rabbit of inle

artumnal

unicorn
i could list a hundred favorites, but i’ll leave some to be explored by you if you so desire ![]()
Along with the links i’ve already made in this post, you can view more studio work, airbrush, live digital art, and photos by Android Jones here and you can also connect with this artist on twitter and facebook.
Sending out a big boho hug and infinitesimal love and gratitude to you Andrew. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creative mind with this universe.
bliss.

Banging on Gilligan’s Island
I had been emailing Georgette about all kinds of useful subjects, like where in Reno I can find an angry ferret. No doubt figuring a public paper trail would strengthen the deposition, she asked me if I would contribute to the boho blog. Here goes.
I’ve been thinking about Gilligan’s Island recently. I was at the Nevada Writers Hall of Fame ceremony a few weeks ago and Dawn Wells–aka Mary Ann–was there. She’s from Reno, was even Miss Nevada in 1960, so I imagine she still spends some time here. I knew this about her, so I wasn’t that surprised to see her at the event. I didn’t talk with her other than to say hello, but she struck me as the type who would join committees and sit on boards. Or maybe she just likes books.
I couldn’t help but check her out. Thanks to Sherwood Schwartz, a twenty-something Wells in pigtails, a midriff, and short shorts is so etched in my memory I doubt even Alzheimer’s could erase it. She looks good, like an older Mary Ann (of course) without the pigtails, midriff, and short shorts.
Along with Gilligan’s Island Schwartz created The Brady Bunch, so we can also thank him for giving us a budding Marueen McCormick in a tight shirt. (And yes, we can curse him for so many things–Cindy’s saccharine lisp, cousin Oliver, Lovey Howell, puerile humor, shaky premises, unbelievably cheesy television shows–but that’s a different thread.) Indeed, The Brady Bunch and Gilligan’s Island have a lot of sexual energy. For instance, all the Brady kids seem like they might eventually hook up–Greg and Marcia, for sure. Whoever wrote A Very Brady Sequel picked up on that interesting, creepy subtext. (And here’s another homage that I suspect also has the step siblings hooking up.) And if Schwartz hadn’t come up with a plot in which a group of men and women are stranded on a deserted island, I’m sure Hustler would have, eventually.
The sexuality of the Schwartz television universe is perhaps nowhere more tantalizing than in the characters of Mary Ann and Ginger. The each embody a respective female archetype of sexual fantasy. Ginger is the voluptuous sex kitten with a sultry purr that hints of powerful men and all-night Hollywood debauchery. Yes, you’ll worry that she is out of your league and that she will leave once you escape the island. But that tension can be a turn on, so maybe it’s worth the worry. Plus she’s hot. Mary Ann is the pig-tailed girl-next-door who serves you pie with a corn-fed smile. Her loyalty would put a St. Bernard to shame and she will do anything you ask…anything. But she’s also insipid and clingy. With Ginger, you could probably have a good conversation. With Mary Ann, her incessant prattling about coconut cream pies will have you wishing she’d run off with the Professor.
Which brings us to a question that has vexed pubescent boys, curious girls, and stoned undergraduates for decades: Ginger or Mary Ann? If you were to choose, which one would you want to be stranded on an island with? Which one would you rather bang? Some consider the answer to this question so weighted with meaning, so fraught with significance, that it provides a window into the deepest recesses of the respondent’s psyche. It’s the Rosetta Stone of pop culture queries.
Not so for the men of Gilligan’s Island. I’ve yet to hear anyone debate the desirability of the Professor vs. Gilligan, the Skipper vs. Thurston Howell. And this is precisely where Schwartz’s sexual genius was golden. For sexually smart is coming up with a show about men and women trapped on a deserted island. Sexually savvy is casting two nubile women for the show and then dressing them in skimpy costumes. Sexually brilliant is surrounding these two women with male characters who are, for all intents and purposes, neutered. The Professor is an emasculated nebbish more interested in science than women. The Skipper is a closet pederast, his special “little buddy,” Gilligan, and asexual prepubescent. And Thurston Howell is too much the patrician to ever get intimate with the plebs. That means you, dear viewer, can imagine yourself on the island, the only one eager to lift up the movie star’s gold dress and pull down the bumpkin’s short shorts.
And yes I do mean undress the movie star and the bumpkin. Because as far as I’m concerned, the eternal question of Ginger or Mary Ann overlooks the best, most obvious solution–take them both.
bohos, please give a warm hug to salvo: new blogger sharing adventures with all of us on boho crush
attention you beautiful energetic beings: matt aka salvo is going to be adding his wit and charm to our blog. we welcome you to read his blogs, we encourage you to interact, leave comments and get to know him more. he is a magical delight from the universe, rocking my writing world, and has opened up a path of insurmountable writing adventures for me personally (georgette)! we are truly looking forward to what he is going to be posting and sharing with our boho community!
for continual updated information regarding our boho bloggers, please refer here. (p.s. if any of you are aware of a word-press plug-in that helps us link to the individual authors posts, we would be eternally grateful)
the path and genuine time we have spent getting to know matt has been delightful! it is going to be a true honor to share some cyber time with his beautiful mind. we have had many interesting conversations about words, books, burning man, music, boho, christmas, and more. 2010 is going to be his first year on the playa, I think his writings before and after his experiences are going to provide such an opportunity for so many beautiful and diverse minds! I know you are all going to truly dine on his delicious love of words.
I asked matt to share some intentions, I feel intentions help give a genuine idea of not only what kind of information will be delivered, but also how.
**
♥ about matt: sal·vo \’sal-vō\, noun (1591). From Italian salva, from French salve, from Latin, hail!, from salvus healthy. 1 a : a simultaneous discharge of two or more guns in military action or as a salute b : the release all at one time of a rack of bombs or rockets 2 : something suggestive of a salvo: as a : a sudden burst b : a spirited attack (Excerpted from Merriam-Webster).
♥ intentions: My contributions to the Boho Crush blog, under the name Salvo, will be brief thought pieces that tend toward humor. They may include commentary and criticism that falls somewhere between idle and ardent. As a fan of both order and chaos, my posts will be carefully crafted, yet suffused with ideas that always threaten to smash the barricades.
♥ I believe that stories fulfill a basic human need. That said, the following are a few elements of mine. I hail from a Midwestern region populated with people made skeptical by a flat landscape and a frequently clouded sky. I am still getting used to the unabashed positivity, non-stop sunshine, and sublime verticality of the Mountain West. Like so much in this Gemini’s life, I contentedly reside—geographically and mentally—in both places. I write for no other reason than the joy of writing, and I have a deep love for words that I developed at an early age and indulge through reading, writing, and conversation. In fact, I make my living with words and ideas (thankfully).

boho featured yum: Lulu’s raw chocolate alchemy
This snack brought to you by: nopantsdance

i’m about to let you in on a little chocolategasm secret..
remember to breathe ![]()
My tongue has always had a natural attraction to dark chocolate, which has recently lead me down a yummy path of discovering the many flavors and potions that go into making my body feel so alive with sweetness. Until Lulu’s i had never encountered the blissfull, sensual, healing powers that chocolate can poses. i has always indulged because it just tasted so sexually delectable and smooth.

my brilliant stash!
i was first introduced to Lulu’s chocolate by @gcrush at burningman 2008. We were all dressed up for the night.. getting ready to walk out and watch the burn when georgette fluttered over with a beautiful brown glass jar of BLISS. i was going on my 8th day without chocolate, which is torture for a chocoholic like myself, so i gratefully opened my mouth to the most magical, smooth, cacao treat i’ve ever experienced. I was instantly in love.. my taste buds danced the tango all night!
on my most recent adventure i had the pleasure of getting to know Lulu and indulge further into her land of dark creamy alchemy.
Her maca bars, drinking chocolate, Saphrodisiac bars, and many other exclusive delights that have not reached her website.. have got me hooked for life!

i’m building a deeper relationship with her chocolate (hahaa.. a beautiful relationship indeed) and truly appreciating the beauty in her creations. i have picked a favorite, but they are all suiting for the many moods of my tongue and body. She’s even got a moon blend for women to help alleviate menstrual and menopausal symptoms.
bliss!
There is a secret ingredient to her dark chocolate magic that i cannot divulge, but it explains why i feel instantly sexy with a spoon full of her bliss. for now i’ll just blame it on the maca. did you know that maca is an energizer & aphrodisiac? meow! i’ve developed quite a delectably naughty little fantasy around this chocolate, and her edible body butter.. i’ve yet to taste test it on a set of yummy boobies so if you try it out.. feel free to share your adventures with it here.
I’m so thankful that Lulu was around while i was on my adventures. It was a treat to get to know such a beautiful goddess.. so full of love.. with such a luscious booty!!
maybe someday she’ll share the magic secret ingredient, but until then.. my lips are sealed ![]()
I love to share things that bring bliss into my life.. and i’m so happy to share my indulgence with all of you. This goddess has her own story of love that has brought the world of chocolate to her.

Now.. I’m curious.. for all of you chocolate lovers.. what is your favorite kind of chocolate and what’s your favorite way to eat it?
i love it all the time but i wouldn’t mind licking some of Lulu’s Western Red Cedar, my FAVORITE, off the nipples of a beautiful goddess or the shaft of a delicious hard cock.
mmMm!
enjoy!
love and gratitude

LYNX and Janover are headed to Reno. And with a Sasha Rose on top, this night will be beautiful!!! LYNX a phenomenal artist, we met her and Jamie (janover) briefly when they performed up at Tahoe a few years back. Gorgeous energy, magical earthlings, and a super treat to the senses. We have seen LYNX and Janover throw down at Lightning in a Bottle and Burning Man. It’s going to be such a treat to have them in Reno.
I have recently posted an event that Jamie is going to be presenting in San Fransisco. The Unified Field Theory of Nassim Haramein
Sasha Rose was on Random Rab’s latest album aRose. If you follow me on twitter, or listen to me, you often hear me talk about him.
Shone and Sasha use to live in the same house years and years ago when Sasha was still a young goddess. It’s incredible how interconnected the worlds are of these beautiful and magical people. It is truly wonderful seeing her spread her light around the world. Incredible voice!
I’m so thankful Nick Catanella informed me of this event on Facebook. I have been so out of the loop with the world lately. I’m thankful when people share beautiful magical events with me!
The tickets are $8 in advance and $12 at the door, you can purchase your advance tickets at Paesano Productions online, or grab them at the door when you arrive.
We look forward to seeing you there.
I have been listening and loving their new ep: Between Worlds
If you are a fan of Lynx and Janover on facebook, you can watch an amazing video of a high speed time lapse of this album cover. Art by Ryan Johnson.
you can also follow their adventures on twitter.
music makes the people come together
boho featured photographer: David Lachapelle
are you ready for a magically delicious adventure?
first…….watch this okay and this one
these videos showcase a magical production of a magical artist! I love all of the efforts he took for his projects. check out more of the behind the scenes videos! I will most likely be there watching them while you are too!
however if you would like to know more about David:
read this:
“LaChapelle’s work continues to be inspired by everything from art history to street culture, creating both a record and mirror of all facets of popular culture today. He is quite simply the only photographic artist currently working in the world today whose work has transcended the fashion or celebrity magazine context it was made for, and has been enshrined by the notoriously discerning and fickle contemporary art intelligentsia.”

but please do make sure you visit here:
dear david,
we wanted to let you know how much we truly appreciate your work and everything that you do. an artist who follows the beat of his own drum. I was first introduced to you by shone. I’m so thankful. when Shone was first showing me what myspace was about, you were one of the people on his top friends list. I remember following along your adventures back then, I think if I recall correctly, you were on a personal retreat, taking time and nurturing your soul in hawaii I want to say. this was your profile pic at the time.

since then shone has always been inspired, and will soon someday use himself as a subject. I have been his muse for sometime, and it will be such a reward to see himself from his artistic point of view.
I have loved reading adventures of you and Pamela Anderson out having a great time on the town, and then ending up back in your studio to do some shooting. we met a man, his name is Scott Monaco, who told us about an adventure like this that he had with you, holding lights and stuff while you shot Pamela in a mobile home. I know the story could be a little distorted, you know how time and memory can get the best of us at times.
We wanted you to know that we think of you ALOT. We have your book Heaven to Hell, We show it to many of our friends and to those who participate in our own photoshoots. I escape for quite some time into your adventures. I love the stories most of all that take place in your work.
I truly feel that the universe has greatly benefited from your love and talent. The images you present with celebrities is FANTASTIC! I could only imagine what it must be like to work with so many of them. We know from personal experience, that working with others is not an easy task. It takes a lot of patience and appreciation of so many types of personalities. Your skill is remarkable, and although you may have heart this a bazillion times or more, we just wanted to send you some super duper boho love!
You are an inspiration, and will always have a special place in our hearts.
I have spent the afternoon exploring your website. each time I land, I find new things that I had never discovered before. I think this is one of the benefits of having a website. I can come visit you anytime, wether you are sleeping, or working, and spend some quality time with you. I love this music video goodbye yellow brick road you created with Elton John. what the hell, I loved all of them. the No Doubt one, It’s My Life, gwen is a doll. Such a magical potion of artists. wow!
One of these days I am looking forward to meeting you personally. as I am sure Shone would too! I would give you the biggest hug ever!!! I know that due to time and your availability that I most likely will not have the opportunity to ask you some questions. so I thought that I would take the opportunity to do so now.
1. I would love to hear the story of how you met Andy Warhol, and what it was like working with him. I would love to know one of your favorite moments you shared with him: what inspiration or stimulation did it create?
2. where is your favorite place to visit in the universe?
3. as an artist, one who creates mature content, what obstacles have you been through, and what are some things that you have learned that you would be willing to share some light on?
4. do you have some favorite places online where you can be yourself and connect with other like minded creative earthlings? Are you interested in discovering any new playgrounds?
5. what is your favorite drink?
6. and lastly, I know it’s a little personal, but I’m always so curious to know, what is your favorite fetish?
We send you love and genuine hugs. regardless of our boho travels, you always have a place to restore your soul and be loved by magically expressing earthlings.
I hope you sleep well tonight, and have the best morning ever!
boho love and kisses

boho featured music: The Illegal album by Kraddy
I must admit, I’ve been here and there, and a little bit everywhere. Learning the internet, and doing my best to learn how to present all of the magikal findings in our online and real word adventures. I’ve had quite a few blogs and places where I have shared time love and energy. I think it’s time to present it all here in this blog for you guys. I hope you will find the information inspiring, stimulating, and just as magikally delicious as we do.
To get things started off, I am going to share with you some music that has been rocking our world lately.
1. Hopefully by now you are familiar with Kraddy, if not you might be familiar with The Glitch Mob. well he is a former Glitch mob gone solo! We are happy and excited for his path, and wish Kraddy the best on his adventures. A thing to mention here is that these artists are highly supportive of the change in path, and here in boho land we think that this is just super duper amazing! We understand that the path can change for any kind of relationship, regardless, honoring that change with love and support will allow each participant to move forward the best way ever!!! Huge boho love is what we got!!
