News from the studio
I finally got myself over to see the show.
Which was good, 'cause I liked it.
I had mixed feelings going in, showing stuff that wasn't meant to be shown
seems like it's taking advantage and I don't really like the fetishization
that said it was really good, well done.
I am a big Basquiat fan, when he is good he is great.
The colors on these two are great
Today was the 7th Avenue 7th Heaven Street Fair.
I like to go to different neighborhoods.
Meet new people and other vendors.

Joe started running the drawing session at the project the year I was born, 1968.
I came on the scene when I moved to NYC in 1990.
I've been drawing at Joe's pretty regularly ever since.
Joe's is leaving NYC for somewhere in MA.
Today was the final drawing session.
Joe's has been a constant and a big part of my life,
the whole time that I've lived in New York
I am sad to see him go.
But happy for him and thankful
for all the drawing classes I've attended over the last 25 years.
Here's a great chance to see a bunch of my paintings on Broadway, in Manhattan!!

While I've made it to a few of the LES galleries
I haven't really seen what's out there.
So yesterday Tracie and I hit the trail
armed with the list
we saw as much as we could
though the art was pretty disapointing.
we had a great time hanging out and admiring
the great buildings of the Lower East Side
while enjoying smoothies
the winner for best art of the day was Brie Ruais at Mesler/Feuer!
