🌿 Welcome to myles' garden!

👋🏼 Hey! I'm myles braithwaite and I have been alive for 39 years, 46 weeks, 2 days, 12 hours, and 52 minutes! This is my garden of ideas. A collection of thoughts, photos, and things I love.

📷 Recent photos

A black-and-white photo looking up at a shelf from a low, couch-level angle. Four posters hang on the wall: a grid of tiny illustrated trees, a striped optical-perspective print, a painting of a woman resting a katana on her shoulder against a city skyline, and a Caribou Honey poster. Below, a record shelf holds vinyl upright, with If I Could Make It Go Quiet by girl in red turned face-out, a hooded figure lit from within. In front sit an orchid, a small R2-D2 card, a framed photo of trees, and a light box reading TWENTY PAST EIGHT. A turntable sits to the right, with more records lining the shelf below.

A clear glass vase of cut flowers stands on a cluttered table in a sunlit room. The bouquet holds two round yellow marigolds, ruffled pale-blue carnations, tall white and blush snapdragons, and small orange daisies among green foliage. Afternoon light comes through a window on the right, past a potted plant on the sill. In the background at left, a low bookshelf holds a white-and-red Polaroid camera above a dark TV screen and rows of books. On the table in front are magazines, a small devotional prayer card, and two cups holding pens, brushes, and markers.

  • Annual Prologue: 2026

    There’s a tab open on my laptop that’s been there for three weeks. A half-finished drawing, a reference image, a colour picker frozen mid-decision. I haven’t closed it. I think that means something.
