But such is life right?
but now with a new place to work in Dumbo, bk 2009 is looking fine..
( i hope...)

After a rather tremultuous year plus some, I finally found my newest artwork slithering into the Lower East side's Sensei Gallery. With the help of one Stephen "Dirty South" Key, the work was hung with no problems. A homeless dude yelled about his Johnson, and A parking ticket was given. (Sneaky short chick couldn't even see her over the roof of the car..) Uneventful enough by NY standards I set out into the hot afternoon relived that the show was up...
Later that night despite the 90 plus degrees 100% humidity weather, A good amount of people braved the heat and came out and checked the work.. This Group of work had Basically become a journal, of sorts. My Trail of thoughts and ideas for the last year. As well as my Defense, all left in behind in ink.

The inception of the books,, 2002- 2003 P.P.O.W Gallery NY

Originally i was Attracted to the yellowness, but soon it became a project of rescuing books never to be read again. I strip them down and work with with the marks life provided. I then add my own and send them back out into the world. By stripping them down of anything that mighty scare off the audience, (I.E. Thickness of pages) i also work on the end pages where some people will read the summary of the book, and obviously a pictures worth a thousand words. My hope is that in this new format these books will be able to compete with moder media and return to conveying information as they once did.
