After looking at his cheerleaders i thought, man, i could do this with skinnydippers, this guy is awsume!
Well, I am going to start working over at the ware house Red 10 again, VM is over there so I get to hang out an paint for free cause we are dong this collaborative , about 8 paintings total, its gonna be tuff cause time is limited, I can tell so I am going to have to trash old ways of doing things.
One thing this Green lake picture, man!
I almost want to recall them “ everything about art I learned from porn” I also would have to credit this artist, I ran across(off craigslist) called Joe heaps, his work is really good, I like the faces on these cheerleader, his choice of subjects, very American,

But it feel the humidity is back up, Drek has already been giving me lectures about coming outta the woods and being in big city life, (personal hygiene etc) I am just letting all hang out for the summer then bamb!
When I went to Marathon I lived in this old barn and painted that summer didn’t give a fuck about nothing, (in the hygene dept) who cares you live out in the desert, didn’t wash clothses the whole summer, I think it was the peek of my drinking bs, almost died from it one night
That’s one thing I love about west Texas, the bright desert morning, waking up in one of those, you just don’t feel sick,.
Well one summer evening this new bank that opened up in Marathon had a reception , , man what a spread I must have taken the record of drinking to many beers that night too, it went on for hours, I ended up passing out on the couch in back of the barn I remember slowly waking up and coughing and leaning over an and throwing up all that good brisket , man what a waste!, then went back to sleep sort amazed, man I could have choked to death!, the next morning I just woke up hit the ground with a hose , cause the flies were bad there. And went on painting , I guess since its so dry out there your body is always thirsty and drinking beer seems like nothing.
