1. I sprained my ankle on the way to hang my show today. To quote Benicio Del Toro in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: “God damn, what a bummer.” 2. My show is hung at the Squat and Gobble on Fillmore near Haight street. 3. I ate brautwerst for breakfast. 4. I sold 5…

I heart my studio Originally uploaded by angrypirate. I just spent my first full day at the studio. It feels so good to have this space. I just spent the day getting ready for hanging my show tomorrow, made some stretcher bars for the france paintings and primed my new chalkboard. I could get into…

We had a very quiet new year watching deadwood on dvd and drinking champagne. Last year lots happened. Tom formed a band and wrote tons of songs, I worked at the Gap, went to France and wrote a book. This year for me is all about finishing my AA, figuring out where I’ll get my…

I teased you with talk about bob ross, dr seuss and william kentridge and then never said another word. I did some experiments with oils on a panel and my video camera. Stop motion painting. It was fun and I might try it some more. Not sure oil is the right medium, it just gets…

Just hours after I joined artworksf, they got a gig for me. I’ll be showing 16 paintings at the squat and gobble on fillmore and haight. Starting January 3rd. Um, yeah, fire under my ass is officially lit. Looks like I have a lot to do this weekend.

So you know how I like to overextend myself? Well it appears next year will be no different. Heck, I might as well start talking about my new years resolution now. It appears I’m getting an early start on the new year. resolution #1: Get my art out into the world. hang art in cafes,…

william kentridge, apple computer, dr. seuss, and bob ross are telling me to take my video camera to the studio tomorrow and I’m listening to them. If it’s nothing more than an experiment, it’ll be an exciting way to break in my new studio.

Christmas was a success. Mod snapped this picture and others.

Hope you are all having a wonderful day. Santa was very good to me this year. I got a rolling stones cd, beach boys cd, a pink cowgirl shirt with horseshoes, a wishbone pendant, a very nice red shirt with embroidery which is now my christmas shirt, socks, fingerless gloves, bubble bath, a muppets dvd,…

Merry xmas Originally uploaded by angrypirate. This is turning out to be a very merry christmas indeed. Tom’s brother in law donated his old Dainese motorcycle jacket to me. It’s got very bad mildrew issues but I spent the morning bleaching and washing it. I seem to be conquering the stink and am now the…

OK, first, look at this, a giant pink bunny on the top of a mountain. Second, It’s just before 1pm and I turned in my article. Maybe that little girl will get christmas after all. Third, Lynn is on the front page of Webmonkey today! Yeah Lynn! bye!

Didn’t make it Originally uploaded by angrypirate. I’m still working on the article. Trimming down camera raw into 2500 words or less has proved to be a challenge. Right now I have 2700 words and large gaps. So a little girl won’t be getting christmas tonight.

Well I didn’t get a whole lot of writing done yesterday but I did get quite a bit of research done, got some sort of skeleton together and started to get my head around this article. By the way, where did I learn to put together an article, let alone a book. You know where?…

Although this is a journal about my semi-personal life as a private citizen, it is also a public one. I write it in hopes that someone is interested enough to read it. Thinking that my life is on display is a sort of bizarre motivator. It keeps me going like the Energizer bunny. It gives…
