Hi folks!
I’m exited to announce that Aaron Sehmar of the British art blog The Flying Fruit Bowl will be doing a feature on me starting today. The feature is mostly visual, save a minor presentation, which just happens to be my old artist presentation that Aaron archeologically dug out from somewhere. Next Sunday he will publish the interview that I have mentioned here earlier, and that I have been working on the past few weeks. Then you can finally hear how I rant… … … I apologize in advance… And I hope you still stick around afterwards. (…)
Second - I am happy to announce that my image below, Stairs on Ivory, has been selected to Portland Oregon’s Black Box Gallery, and their show Photo Shoot: 2020. For more information on how COVID-19 is impacting that show, please head over to their website for further details.
All positive news aside, I can’t fully enjoy any of it to the extent I would like to, as I’m sitting on a COVID-19 restricted cafe patio, sweating in the dry, windy heat, that is devastatingly fueling the over 2300 acre forest fire, blazing, rapidly spreading, swallowing, the Santa Fe National Forest less than 15 minutes from town… It’s supposed to be raining now, but our rainiest season, the monsoon season, has all but evaporated… And the heartbreaking reality is that the only opposition we have to our dumpster fire prez., the Democratic Party, has just backtracked on some of their crucial environmental policies. Not only are we not promised healthcare during a pandemic, we are also not getting to vote for an ally of environmental causes in one of the hottest, and worst fire years we’ve ever had. Whatever we personally end up doing to get Dump out of The White House, we have to vow each other to hold all elected officials, no matter party affiliation, accountable. To make sure they do their uttermost in the fight against our single largest threat, climate change. And while on the topic of climate change - Let’s see what the two predicted hurricanes in The Gulf Of Mexico do. In recorded history, that’s only happened once. Two hurricanes in The Gulf… At best, they can direct some much needed rain up this way… I know I’ll be rain dancing if they do!
