blackout, heatwave...
"the night was sultry..."
so, I have my painting show opening the other night and of course a june night ends up feeling like the dog days of august. A blackout hits the area of Staten Island where the café is located, but it still has power. A few blocks in either direction the folks are not so lucky. Some of my friends drove over an hour to attend, so I'm glad there is electricity and the show is on. I'm also glad to hand them a cold beer and I don't mind if I do as well. I had a great time and hope my guests did as well.
Much thanks to those who braved the heat to bask in the white hot light of my ego.

Funny story for you. Heading out after the show and as we get about 37 feet from the Goethals we see signs that say "GOETHELS CLOSED 9:30PM HA HA HA YA JERSEY PRICKS, YA" Barrelling along at 78 miles an hour I couldn't see a sign for the Bayonne Bridge and didn't want to try to find my way because the cops weren't letting people drive just anywhere so OFF TO THE OUTERBRIDGE!! First time. Very exciting. Cool show, BTW. As soon as my wife graduates and gets a job you're getting a commission for our 'McDonalds' room.
wow sorry to hear about your luck with the electricity. atleast your art was shown and all went well. your stuff looks great hanging up, gives it a different look than when i see it on here or on illofriday.
