Favorite all time quote . . .
Send me some sample boards in a sort of latte color, but with a bit of ecru or one of each. Perhaps they should read toward putty, you know, like parchment, but not lineny. Do not make it too camel or vellum. Try one in ecru and sand. While you are at it, another in a sisal or fawn. Make sure it doesn't go oatmeal, nougat, or raw silk. I hate those colors. They are so eighties. Shell, suede, or wheat is OK. Can I get them tomorrow?"

InKoPah Wildlife
First one a rosy boa on the driveway making his way over the crest.
Number two - another rosy on the patio watching me paint my refrigerator.
Three was the black stunner that showed up on the kitchen counter while I was napping.
Four unfortunately got run over and I watched it writhe in the rear view mirror.
Five was the red variety that flicked orange to red as it crossed the road near the DV Tower.
My photoshop rendition of what it must have been like.

A new Renaissance Man * Grayson Perry - fantastic potter, brilliant thinker and utterly unusual fashion divanista. I read somewhere that the stars are aligned similar now to what they were at the high Renaissance. I've been looking for the current stars among the millions of artists - by George I've found one.

2012
Hey before January is over I'd like to wish everybody an excellent 2012. May it be all that it's cracked up to be. Stay alert!
Shrine Making
Here's a little shrine I made a few years back for my friend. I tied copies of every friend I met at his house, put them in zip locks and tied them to this tree in his garden - all waving goodbye in the wind.
Garden Murals
This is my design for a garden terrace in Hillcrest. I pretty much have sold her on the window frame elements: the arch is a long shot - and the tiger.
Imagine tea here with your friends. A taste of Versailles with cakes and music.
Very little gets done these days as no one wants to spend money - especially on the arts.
My friend just sold a $4000 painting for $600. I worry about her throwing herself off a bridge. A beautiful bridge would be in Balboa Park but who wants to die in lanes of traffic.
I know an artist from the dog park who drove his dogs to Tuscon and then did himself in with a gun.
I'm too excited to see the outcome of all the 2012 hoopla. It's hard to make plans beyond that.
