re: more travels.....

hello lovers,

some more strange images from SSM, or Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario......an amazing time there, i'd like to thank Jonathan Dewar, Andrea Pinheiro, and everyone at Shingwauk Residential School, Algoma University and 180 projects for inviting me there. it was quite an awesome and amazingly productive time there.

chainsaw bear. chopping down trees.

i met this guy. 

we went crushing paint cans

and bombing missions!

some of the mixed-media work

i did at 180 projects.

a sad empty theatre

derelicte for nearly a decade.

i'd definitely move to SSM part of the year.

a strange tower.

i thought it'd be the perfect zombie

apocalypse hide-out.

well, i'm going for a walk, until next time lovers,

re: home sweet home.....

ahhhh, home, i love it and hate it! hahaha

anyway lovers,

don't get me wrong, i love traveling, i love making art, i love meeting new peoples, i love wrecking new places, but it's nice to get back home. plus, i usually do extended tours, or am gone a week or six at a time. all my plants have died, well, not all, i've got four that are heartily still giving it a go. haha.

but i miss my kids dearly, and even though each trip is supposed to expand my mind, or my group of contacts, i don't really believe it is always that beneficial? the art world, like any world is full of liars, sycophants, double talkers, back stabbers and the like, but it is also full of potential patrons, friends, lovers, leavers, and the like, so it really is a fun way to navigate the world.

just be smart. or stupid. whatever. hahahaha, don't take advice from me.

i am just as capable of self-sabotage as well as anyone else! and i often do it by accident, and sometimes by design! hahahahahahah.

anyway, here's some images from the road.

enjoy!

the wall i painted at 180 projects/gallery

in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario

Reggie's, a great dive pub/bar in SSM,

it reminds me of the Central Pub in Kamloops.

a lot.

dials, gadgets, spinners and things.

my baby, i missed her. 

she's always by my bed. 

waiting for some action.

re: new art........

hello lovers,

so i'm in sault ste. marie, working at algoma university and at 180 projects/gallery space getting ready for an installation/exhibition. i'm also crushing a wall. check it below.

i've been pretty lucky, it was -12 when i got here, but warmed up to -2 and it's been great painting outdoors as well as indoors, working on another project. i'll post those images later.

talk more later,

re: away......
