Quick thoughts

Drawings of photographs I never took but wished I had / Photographs of drawings I never made but wished I had

Images of California and Scandinavia, two places I love and hope to live (again) in my life. Right now I'm just stuck in the middle..

Advice

Back in the 1950s and 60s my grandparents owned a small grocery store in Houston. My sister found these awhile ago packed away in a drawer in their house. They are from a collection of about two dozen cards that came in bulk Jolly Rancher boxes of that era. All of them have these crazy inspirational messages and beautiful type.

Quick note

I haven't gotten around to saying this since I've been so busy, but I wanted to thank everyone who came to my show two weeks ago. I appreciate all the support more than I am able to say. It was really good seeing a lot of you who I haven't seen in awhile and meeting people I'd never met before outside of the Internet. Thank you..

Website / California

1. Soon I am going to completely redo this website and set up a more straightforward portfolio site. Don't worry though, the archives will still be accessible through a link (instead of being the main page). Also.. I've been working on this half-size portfolio book/zine/greatest hits sort of thing to apply for grants and jobs. When I put the new site up I'll have it available free for download fully formatted so people can print it out themselves if they want (and if they have a duplex printer).

2. I'm going to be in San Francisco for the entire month of June. If anyone would like to say 'hi' or lead me to some good food, temporary jobs, grants I should apply for, etc, email me! :)
