Redford Review, 2009-2011
the second stay here it was almost two years, way over what i thought but, its affordable and you get used to the silents in the morning , it grows on you. what have i learned,?
hummm,
well whats been bounceing around in my head was this idea of drama, or the kinda art or humor i seem to be compelled to dive into with who ever. i guess i make the mistake that nobody takes any of this seriously but it reflects in how i conduct buisness, like "well you made your bed now sleep in it," this being the whole chickengeorge ebay to utube deal, there is has alot of truth in all of it, but does it really matter ? drama, and spining art around it? especialy when its sorta like make believe. over the two years here basicly i had like some break ups in friendships which in some degree were unnessary, cause as soon as i start something with somebody like art project they are part of me but in this passive aggressive ways, they become the weapons to get at each other, its clearly seen on the net , and they become these battle point etc, which i find immature and self destructive to a degree, but then again i am in Springer type of zone here. but it seem silly if its really for real,.
which drew me back to why i wanted to destroy all the net activitys ,( i just learned don't run the net into your home, its an easy way to pass time, too much time , ) You mix a group of people in there it gets a history and its hard to quit, like your part of something and hell if it pays, (ebay)-, relationship with Red was a big part of it, after that kaput and reactivated it left me with hesitations but then it might just be the (drama) etc, it does work... or a scruffy or Ruby, both kaput, what do you do? there are volumes of art work based on these relationships----
maybe its the wrong type of work, dramatic work, my utube spelled it out pretty clearly what i like to do, mainly as an act, it seems funny and a bit ridiclulas , - so maybe the end of Redford is like a learning point to shot for higher goals than street peddling my pathologys, but then again my taste are hell bent on lowbrow melodramas.
The other conclusion which might lead me out of the introvsions of folk art, is my talks with Enrique and Tucker, on politics, and that SDA preacher tapes Walter Visse i think was his name, and this Christian dude i talked to over at scruffys who used conspericy ideas to prove the sun revolved around the earth. To me it seem what been occupying my mind lately , not so much drinking or BBQ or being grosss, even know i enjoy that but form a career on it hummm,.= but the flow of people in the media who sybolize these stances , like the Reno thing, Janet Reno is a Right wing icon over the Waco deal,. But to me what the interest now it , is it shouldnt be right or left, more, universal, with out politics.
humm the can tree made by Justin seems to be bare i wonder who stole the cans,.,?Kat 97 part 4
if anybody out there is interested in buying these two owl paintings i made, over at Julies, way back
here is a link
Well late that night after Jeff made a door she couldn't break down she was hanging with the boys and was wondering whos bed she was gonna sleep in humm,. It was cold and wet and windy outside past midnight, we were all sitting around the kitchen table some of the guys turn in early to avoid the situwation so it was me and paul i think maybe Todd was there too but she wasn't gonna have anything to do with him, so she was just sitting there confused and wonder where do i sleep,. i started to ask her, humm
"so your and artist, " yea " have you ever considered painting chickens,?" well i dunnno, do you want me to teach you how to paint chickens" sure why not,
Paul yelled out , "no God no way "
So she escaped into my back shed in what was one of the wierdist encounter ever, but she seem determined to stay and she played the role as george's brainwashed chicken painter employee,
Jeff and paul were agasted that i "converted" her over it was all funny but really in retrospect
she was turning out real exestripper /cokehead manic based art based on bad jokes and cruddy painting or drawing, .
But after a few days i had to leave and told her she had to go, but in that time being she drew these ridiculas sketchs this one piece i remember "Cobain or Christ" which was a wax head or relief mounted on wood, hidious but, oddly conected now to crap i am making .
so she zipped of like a kat no record to where she came went or is going, tumbling from one fucked up event to the next,.
Justin's last exit outta Redford
Kat conti,, part3
Well, one of the funny things about kat which is why i brought her up here, is well.
Jeff was trying to get rid of her after the first night but she wouldn't leave, i figured she was homeless, and seemed freindly,
she had a flirty way about her that scared some guys and fooled others, to bad she wasn't good looking enough for us to fall for it,
So it was funny like what are we gonna do about her., not really asking her to leave , "cause we were all cool like that"
the next night or so jeff locked his door and she knocked it down, it was sorta getting cold i remember and in our house the floors were so dirty, that really there was no where to sleep unless you had a bed or something. After she scored one more night with jeff, he came up to me and said "WTF are you guys doing by inviting her here she is crazy!" we just laughed and said she is funny and enjoyed her company so, the next night or so he told her to fuck off and she as gone, or so we thought.

here it is the only photo of the accident, not that bad from what i saw,
just need a littlw work, man i wish i was there, to shoot a utube vid on it me yelling at the guy about the fence it would had been good material.
"old goat rider" sold in the Alpine auction this last nov, part of gallery night deal==
Well=
As she turned around the corner she said , " i am an artist to!!!"
we all sat in amazement as to who or what Jeff had brought home from the bar,
the next day he woke up early and wen to some classes he had and kat was hanging out with the boys while we all had coffee and had this new female in the kitchen, . "Wow a real woman is here, man, !"
she sat around with us laughing in a nerveious maniacal laugh but i bet she knew the bunch of geeks , i am not going anywhere,..
from what i gathered from looking into her over packed car she must be on the road and wanted somewhere to crash , . humm who to bang,?
Jef was no where to be found , we suspect hopeing she would be gone when he came back,
"Wife carrying her drunk husband home"
Kat D, or crazy kat, one of the Crazy house hoes back in 1996
going threw all this stuff i wanted to find the story of this one woman who showed up at our place(the chickenhouse before the fence), ahhh i think it was like in fall 97, me and the boys were sitting in the front room of the house , late one week night around 1 am or so looking at an old tv play old VHF tapes and we hear some body step into the house, from the back door,. we sat there i think it was me , phil, paul and todd at the time and Jeff was out in what he coined the" hovel",.
Well, we all sat still and listen to this person creep through backdoor into the kitchen , we knew it wasn't jeff it was to cautious and slow. We all started looking at each other and then at the corner where , who ever it was is going to turn and reveal themself at the other side or the room.
After the bars close, is when people come back to the house what ever drunken bar trash comes over and sometimes the boys bring somebody with them, hopefully its a hot babe! so it sounded like jeff brought home this babe but ...
so we all sat there giddly awaiting to see who it was. Well we were all started staring at the corner
, "man is this gonna be good
" and she slowly turned the corner, , and with all the delivery of somebody who won a new toster and a 50 buck Walmart card on a game show, this bleached blond big tittyed woman with beaddy eyes and and a smile going ear to yea, said and she was trying to catch her breath,
"Are you artists?" ---- " I am and artist to"!
hahahahahahhahahaah! in a laugh only some trainned exe coke head female would bleach out over the tiddy bar she worked at could bark out,
So was sat there , and the boys all looked at each other and thought WTF has Jeff brought back, from Triple crown.

this was one of her works---

A painting i got form her last year, or so , classic
Well it time to get caught up here on what new productions could be comming down the pipe line, , well,
this i feel is the starts, to something its like image surfing off all the political particularness, i don't want to make it to creepy but...
so to start with, i got what looks like the first of these profiles , Condi and Reno, both are ahhh, the Reno one is awful, but the paint job was tuff, but i don't know something does work about them so i am declareing them the first in the set, The Alex Jones one i am scraping and the Hagee is thrown into back stock, . As i was taking photos of them , the light is bad, i thought well if all else fails i can dump the Reno in Waco at some antiques store thrift store, lol. ==
I this the set will evolve into three sets of work one these political portraits the other these landscapes made of mouse traps and the body scan stuff,
==
i might re shoot the same idea over and over like the Reno with Jaw of David ,
check out this video

when i saw this i was thinking oh man i have to make a piece on this!
the mouse trap landscape are done yet its like my Rothko kiefer- happy paranoid world made of tar and traps,
