PHEW!


Wow. This year has been quite a blur so far. I finally released my "No Apologies" cd. I also got the idea, booked and delivered my first art & music show. After 3 1/2 months of round the clock working, refining, and learning, i packed my car and drove to LA. With a lot of help, I got it set up and it went amazing. I had no idea how much work it was going to be, but sometimes a little naivete can help us be bold. Or stupid. In this case, I'd call it bold. Maybe because it worked. If it hadn't, I'd be saying it was stupid. Amazing how sometimes just when we need it, the right person or thing shows up.

In spite of all its beauty, the world feels broken and inefficient to me most of the time. But every so often, things just click.

I was able to donate some of the proceeds from the show to the frostig center to help children with learning disabilities. It felt great to do. I'm really enjoying painting, and pursuing all the new ideas i have now as well. My world and my mind are open. And now that I got a little sleep, I'm interested to see what's next. More art shows are in the works, new multimedia ideas, songs, and a shorter stint in europe beginning in a week or so. Goin' back to Dali's house!
