today i drove the two hours north to portland maine to get a few copys of the portland phoenix that used one of my pieces for its cover, as soon as my mission was acomplished i drove two hours across NH to milford to have dinner with coco and her family and celibrate her brothers birthday. after dinner i drove courtney and myself the hour and a half south to boston to watch a movie and pass out. all and all it was a good day. now i cant sleep.

P.S. my freind ryans piece is inside in the article and it looks amazing

cover of the portland phoenix

i just found out that one of my images has been used as the cover of this months portland phoenix to represent the coverstory about the show that i was just part of at the whitney artworks. i dont have a great image of the cover yet i need to get up to portland and grab a copy and scan it but when i have it youll see it.
also though i know they will never see this i want to thank the whitney artworks for including me in the show wich is beautifull.

a thought

i have been quite for awhile now i have remained out of the either and the real world for that matter i thought myself in a state of stagnation and thats what the people around me have been seeming to suggest, but it was no such thing it was a time of crystlisation all the busy ideas have slowed down and come together for the first time in one grand concept. better yet i can remain deeply inbeaded in my fantasy world for the duration of this prossces. up untill now i have been a flounderer, now i hope to be a shark or some such. i am soon to arrive."

what am i doing

im sure ive lost my mind, but that may have happened long ago. school is driving me batty. i need some new taste, some new experiance. i need to live wildly.

somthing new im working on

im trying to come up with images that in some way speak about my life. once the images are complete i will find an author and let them decifer the images and create a narrative or imagined biography of me. i feel that this will grant me further access into the world i seek to create through my work
