Liz Arnold moved to New York to freelance for magazines on interiors and homes after working here at Western Interiors & Design. At her relatively new blog Homebodies, she posts detailed photos of the homes she gets to visit: "somebodies, nobodies and the anybodies in between." Her Los Angeles voyeurism so far includes an artist compound in Venice, two other Venice residents who live in their vehicles, and a West Hollywood "gated village" townhouse.
