I'm on the fence about giving up SG. Have been on it some time now, and it's cool and whatnot, but seriously.......I waste enough time as it is!!! I certainly don't need yet another diversion to serve as an excuse for not getting work done. We have not been social much with exceptions of Jackie's throwdown and ChinaGrill with Julie and Christina, money is tight and well, we just don't feel like being fucking social.

So I'm painting like a mofo....this big ol' 40"x60" thing I initially started in the Design District during Art Miami when I was asked to do public painting. She's a flapper gal with Mercury wings on her ankles flying high in a sky of clouds and circuit boards. I'm sick to death of it and want to stick it in the garage or something, but I'm going to soldier on dammit and get the fucker done. She's too big to hide, really.

Participated in the Munny show over at Tates Comics in Lauderhill. Here's my little Coney Island Baby, inspired by a Tom Waits song....I sawed off the Munny claws and gave her nice new lady hands, gave her a flapper finger wave and bloomers!! I'm not a vinyl toy nut, honestly I just learned about them from doing this show, but it was fun.


Matt and I got to Tates on opening night and the freaking line was forever long, like Landsdown St. at the St. Paddy's Day DKM show, only warmer. It just went on and on. We stood there for a few secs then just left. We got back after the weekend and saw some really great Munny's, pics for you here, Sas & Colin Christian, Scot Olsen did some, our tattoo artist Scott White and Pooch from Altered State as well:

Other crap: Just got done being sick. Now Matt is, poor man! Parents were down not too long ago, they stayed at a friends place in Delray, they were here to see my sick uncle in Jensen Beach. I drove them everywhere because they were afraid of getting lost, but hell, I didn't mind. I miss my folks. My parents rule!!!!! We just had lunch with Matt's folks during their 4 hr. layover in MIA, they were on their way to Argentina, and then to Antarctica.....they have literally traveled the world for years.

More art work coming up: More shows at Tates this year, more specifically their new gallery Bear and Bird....I'm doing some paintings for the "Sideshow" show, borrowing more inspiration from Tom Waits. Also just more work in general. On that note, better get back to it.....
