Happy New Years

Woody Guthrie’s 1942 resolutions (originally posted by Wilco):

Tobacco Bowl

I started this painting in 2004.  It took me 7 years to finish it.  But, I recently finished it and gave it to a lovely friend who was celebrating her 28th birthday.  I started this with a sketch I did at the Tobacco Bowl in Iowa city of the two guys on the right playing chess and the one on the left watching them having a cigarette.  It’s a mix of watercolor crayons and acrylic on canvas.

Here’s the caption that went with it:

Cultural Differences Noticed at the G20 meeting in Toronto … The Canadian: Self-absorbed and disconnected from reality. The American: Businesslike, unwilling to be distracted. The French and the Italian: “LOOK AT THAT ASS!”"

On A Letter

I’ve been really into these guys the past two days. A glass of cognac with any of Sam Prekop’s albums playing with a book and a puppy makes any day lovely.

Artist: Sea and Cake
Track: On a Letter
Album: Car Alarm

WUGAZI
“Wugazi is a labor of love by Cecil Otter & Swiss Andy. A year’s worth of cutting up every imaginable Fugazi record and trying out every Wu-Tang acapella they could get their hands on, resulted in Wugazi: 13 Chambers (a must listen for anyone who even looked at a skateboard in the 90’s).”

It hurts to see you go….

R.E.M. as they say it “has called it a day” after 32 years.

All tomorrows parties….

This looks so wonderful. Check out the website here.

My rainy days play this…

Amy Winehouse Dead

She was so young, 27.  I thought she had a beautiful sound and look, so sad.

Happy Birthday Michael Chang!
