Anyway, if you don't already know, Jurne is one of the most interesting, original and humble cats in the game.

Live Fast

acrylic on canvas

collaboration with Monty Guy

"When he woke in the woods in the dark and the cold of the night he'd reach out to touch the child sleeping beside him. Nights dark beyond darkness and the days more gray each one than what had gone before. Like the onset of some cold glaucoma dimming away the world. His hand rose and fell softly with each precious breath. He pushed away the plastic tarpaulin and raised himself in the stinking robes and blankets and looked toward the east for any light but there was none. In the dream from which he'd wakened he had wandered in a cave where the child led him by the hand. Their light playing over the wet flowstone walls. Like pilgrims in a fable swallowed up and lost among the inward parts of some granitic beast. Deep stone flues where the water dripped and sang. Tolling in the silence the minutes of the earth and the hours and the days of it and the years without cease. Until they stood in a great stone room where lay a black and ancient lake. And on the far shore a creature that raised its dripping mouth from the rimstone pool and stared into the light with eyes dead white and sightless as the eggs of spiders. It swung its head low over the water as if to take the scent of what it could not see. Crouching there pale and naked and translucent, its alabaster bones cast up in shadow on the rocks behind it. Its bowels, its beating heart. The brain that pulsed in a dull glass bell. It swung its head from side to side and then gave out a low moan and turned and lurched away and loped soundlessly into the dark."    -the first paragraph of The Road, by Cormac McCarthy

One of Robert Bowen's pieces for Reckoning

I am so excited to show these paintings.

If you're in the neighborhood, peep; don't sleep.

Reckoning is happening at 1:AM on the Sep 28th.

There are a lot of people who helped to make my upcoming show possible.

Here's one, my friend Andrew, who built the canvas frames my Reckoning paintings are stretched on.

His favorite activities include no-hands head stands while waiting for the space shuttle to fly by.

Just another day in SF....
