I spent the morning prepping another 9 panels to get myself going on the 2010 painting year. I will document my previous show and get the images up here in my gallery and store. Lots of change happening around me so I am sure too get some good inspiration for this batch of paintings. It was an amazing day here and I am going to bed with a smile…..

Onwards to the future…..

I stumbled across her at a bookstore, Matsui Fuyuko. Amazing stuff….

I am excited about a new year and I am looking forwards to starting some new large projects. I have some ideas I would like to work out, different parts of the body to work on etc. I have been thinking about all of the projects I have been finishing lately. I just wanted to say thanks for allowing me to do what I enjoy, for pushing me to do a better job and for coming back for more. Thank you.

To all who showed up for the convention last weekend. It was a good time.

I would like to thank my friend Diane for all of her help with the Onwards project (soon to have a link). It is a booklet, print package I put together with help from the guys at the shop. Its a limited edition of 250. Each numbered package comes with with the book, 5 prints and a bunch of stickers. Its on sale at the shop for 25$ and will soon be on sale online here and on the Oddball website. I will also have a new store online here soon with a bunch of good stuff to purchase. Thanks guys .

We are enjoying some time away up in Seattle. Back to reality soon.

Did Lincoln City today with Dahlia. She rolled thru the shallow ditch, down hill and made the pump up the other wall. She’s a good partner. I tweaked my back and am wondering if I’ll get to surf tommorrow. I’ve been preparing for a solo show in November, oil on board. It has been fun and I look forward to showing it. I am also getting a bunch of product together for myself and Oddball . Shirts, a couple prints, a small book published by my pal Tim at parkingblockpublishing.com. I will have some artwork in a new book on tattooers and their art which will be out soon, real soon, more info as I get it. I have been busy so I appologize for my lack of intraweb time, I just would rather not spend too much time in my basement on this computer thing. The super space phone is helping with that, thank you super space phone. I have a lot of tattoo photos to edit and add, again more time in front of a computer, so I appologize also for the lack of visual stimulus, I am gonna get to it. More new stuff on the way on top of all of this, so check back from time to time, maybe I will have updated.

“Maestro Ali Akbar Khan, the master Indian musician and composer who was a pivotal figure in introducing the music of his homeland to the West, has died. He was 87.

The legendary sarod player and teacher died of kidney failure Thursday night at his home in the Bay Area city of San Anselmo, according to an announcement on the website of the Ali Akbar College of Music, Khan’s teaching facility in northern California. The announcement said Khan had been a dialysis patient since 2004 but was still teaching at the college until just two weeks ago.”
