see ebay aution , up now
For the next two months or so, i am going to be making theses type of works till i leave, when exact?,

Well, i am probaly going to continue on in this vien for a while until the house issues are resolved, and it warms up a bit, major painting has stopped, now i am just tinkering around in these funny seens,
as a matter of fact the whole Big Bend deal might have to go on hold , depending on what happens with the house, i should resolve it in a while,. Yesterday i went over to RED10 and hung out with the boyz, Brandon,Vince,Denis, I can Tell Brandon is Anxious to get out and do something, i was telling Dennis , the problem with the "art world" and life in genral,. From what i can figure, the problem is about self respecet and where you put you character focus,. Self imposed painterly twilights , sorta introvered and beautiful can hold your attention for along time, but life and bills rack up on ya, and to make matters worse, if you don't nessarly see your "art" as a personal vision not to be shared but to be found, then you might have the abition to be somebody, which lies the problem.
Listening to Brandon's moans about "what the fuck" a game with no rules, no logic, no goal, whats the goal, and someone gets a prize.. can be prettty madining , as a male we like clear and obtainable objectives, . not random and political acts of rewards, (Art comps-shows etc).
Believe me , as daudting and wierd it sounds i have always been more comfortable playing DonQuattuax than an fancy art seen buster. i am more counrty, but none the less interested and are aware,.
Where does it all go personaly?

So as the last weekend here in the Red10 comes to a close i sorta see a snap
shot of four artist lives at stake, cause as time goes on and all the handi wares and artifacts left behind , it will be their visions and ambitions will prevale or be nothing but a hang over form the 20's.,
One of the things i have brought home to them is you gots to have activity, it all about activity,

i am going to shoot down there work and post it, as a profile, then on to Drek and R.Budd
