Hi! Hope everyone is well and trying to enjoy our somewhat simple lives. The temperature is warming up and the bikinis are coming out. Don’t forget the sunscreen in the coming weeks. I havn’t done a art show in a while, but that might change soon, not sure yet. Should I, shouldn’t I? hmmm. This photo is of a recent trip to the city where we took down a previous art show and had some time to walk around the alleys. I like this one. Hope you all stay safe and talk soon.

                                         Hi, boy, I have been a bad boy.  So long since my last post.  Sure I went away, but that was a month ago and I had two shows since then. One in the city and one in Whistler. The Wine Box show. It was a great hit but no sales. The price of art. Sometimes I do feel that I should move down to the city so I can increase my presence but then I think about missing Whistler to much. So, for now, I will stay located here and try to get better at making posts.  All the best and hear comes spring.  Ohh, did I mention I have a big show coming up again? No, well, April 1st will be a unique one for me because their will be no graphic artists in the show and I will be the only one from Whistler in the show. The opening will be on April 1st and it will be at the Scotia Creek Plaza in Whistler! Stay tuned!!!  The title is Night Lights. Here is the first of many links, http://www.artswhistler.com/events-a-programs/scotia-creek-galleryPs this vid is a little shaky to start but works out ok in the end! Yeah St Maarten!

                                                            This is my new model, cute huh?  Just needs a little nose job and oila!Hi everyone!  Hope your well and havin fun?  What ever it is that you are doing.  Right now Whistler is getting some good earlyish season dumps.  I went up the other day and consider it a great first day for the new year!  I can say that because I only heard the dreaded zceththazzzzaa-riccccthissss-cccllkkitzzz sound once!  Whew!  Also did manage to get some of the fluff and it was very nice!The bigger new than that is….. The Wine Box Show is going to Vancouver at the end of Januaryish.  Yeahhhh! Gonna have some fun that night. The Beaumont Studios on 5th and Cambie.Bigger than that news is that I received confirmation on my next shows opening dates!  Whistler! April 1st, 2013.  I will be presenting a new photo show that I am curating.  The artist’s are all photographers from the Vancouver area and ones I, a-admire and b-share common ground with.  I won’t reveal to much as of yet but in time I will.  Stay tuned.  The opening will be at the Scotia Creek Gallery within Millennium Place. Yeah.Stay save and have fun, wear a helmet on the hill, don’t forget to floss and brush your teeth and of course, be kind to your elders!

                      This is my entry for the show, the title is “Damm Pennies!”Hi everyone!  Like I said, sorry I am so slow.  You think my own webpage would be the first place to turn to for info regarding a big opening.  Nope.  I am a dope.  Anyway, please go check out one of the biggest shows that I ever have curated.  It is at Millennium Place in Whistler.  The show will be up till the 21st of November.  The press has been good and the opening was a hit.  Even though most of the attendees were artists or friends of artists it was still a hit and good times.  I would also like to thank two of my far away entries and their efforts!  Both Chris Crites and Monty Montgomery deserve a big hug and thank you for being part of the show.  It was great to work with you and have your pieces in the show. Thank you!!!  www.bagpainter.com and www.montymontgomery.com.   I would also like to thank all the artists for their time and commitment.  Thank you all for making it a great show.  Stay tuned as the next few shows will really test my abilities as a curator and producer to bring my skills to the next level.  They are super exciting and I can’t wait to share all the info with you, albeit hopefully before the shows as opposed to after the fact. hehe, cheers and stay tuned!

It is with much sadness that I tell you of the passing of a kindred local spirit.  Christian Rhude has gone.  We had a great memorial for him the other day at the Conference Centre in Whistler.  Many of his relatives and family were there and it was nice to meet them and be with everyone drinking a drink and sharing stories.  May you be pain free and fly all the while Christian.  This photo is for you.  RIP                                                                                                                                                    

Well, it seems as life is funny and takes many unusual turns and leaves us with many comical stories.  This one is particularly strange as in a world of theft and denial that I had to comment about.  Recently some friends did some stuff publicly and went on their way.  Later, another date one of the said individuals noticed some talk of their work.  The other did some sleuthing and found that someone else was trying to sell some images(photos) of the work online.  Both parties told me and I chuckled.  You see, nothing is sacred anymore and trademarks don’t hold true for graffiti.  So, if you want your work to stay anonyms then don’t sign it, otherwise put your name on it. simple.  Lessons learned, of sorts.

Well, maybe one day I will decide to write about an upcoming art show before the fact instead of after.  Until then I will write about the show and the success of the night and some details.  It was a great block party in function.  We occupied the ol Napa auto parts store and we went late, as usual.  It was once again filled with the art of the weirdos, The Incredible Amoeba, Doid, Pepe and moi.  We did have guest Weirdos, Andrea Mueller and Hayley Wirsching.  It was a great night and I sold three pieces!! wowow.  Not quite a record but close.  Super fun and cant wait for next years take. Thanks for all involved and a big thanks as always to the super Andrea Mueller.

Hi, welcome to the sick guys house.  I only mean sick as I am sick, it’s ok, just a bad flu/bug thing from hell or some other micro scopic netherworld.  It will pass.  Just wanted to mention that the Weirdos will be having there own venue for the upcoming Function Block Party, June 26th, 6:30pm till 9:00pm.  It should be fun, as usual for the function crew!!  Hope to see you there and keep your eyes and ears open for the press about it.  Lets see, do I get another nice photo in the paper with little Miss Mo?  Time will tell. ciao  The foto is just my take of the classic eye chart a la Arne.

Holly molly!  Just did a recent google search on my name, as I do once and a while.  I found this site that did some really cool stuff with the old poofont.  I must commend them and thank them also.  Check it out as they have a good sense of humour and know a good thing when they see one. hahaha.  thanks crew at http://hotandloose.com/2011/12/22/poo-font-its-a-real-piece-of-shit/

I seem to get that a lot lately.  What is art?  Do you think your stuff is art or?????  As always, art is subjective for sure and what one person defines art as is quite likely much different than what someone else might consider art to be.  Me, well I love art.  I am more modern in my personal aspect to art.  That is not to say that I do not appreciate all styles.  The reason I say that is because of my own recent experiment with something new.  I rip off my own photos and have some real Sheppard Fairey fun with them.  There are 6 in the series and many more to come.  Keep your eyes open around town and you might see some.  I heard they are popping up all over the place.  I love art and hope you do too? ciao
