I like to read while I eat (and annotating makes it easier for me to read in the first place with my dyslexia) so printing out stuff I'd otherwise be reading on my phone has been a really nice new habit.
Can't get distracted and I also get to see my initual thoughts later!
(Are.na has a lot of free pdfs btw!)

Finally got around to printing off a bunch of the essays and articles that I had saved on my computer for a while. I find it makes it easier to get myself to actually get around to reading some of the stuff. Paper is also a nicer reading experience, with less distractions and eye strain.

I got so frustrated with losing beautiful sentences and ideas that Now when I’m reading I have a note book where I write down the sentences I like or make notes of the pages/ideas
I actually go back to them it’s game changing

Also known to use folded post notes and receipts. In cooking magazines and books I’ll use scraps of paper I rip to mark what I’m interested in.

Anders Zorn is beloved for good reason. His work was so skillfully made. Zorn's sense of form in particular is really lovely (and often on display because he loved a nude).
I've seen some of his work irl, but not this piece. Zorn's paintings have a lot of presence in person, so I imagine this one is even more cozy and lively when seen in the flesh. I love the diagonal composition and the use of light, as well as her cute cheeks and socks ♡
