Deck/Deck/Deck

The deck show opens tonight @APW Gallery - so if you happen to be near LIC come through. Fuck I’m sleepy…
What to do, what to do? u deck…
Everything is moving at a snails pace right now. I need a Redbull, a stogie, and some fresh air straight from Puerto Rico. It’s like Heros and the eclipse - I think that if I go there I’ll get my powers back, lol.
FYI, Currently working on: 2 decks (which I absolutely loathe) Dos Elenas - The Stoic Scarecrow, & The Absent-Minded Birdfeeder, for Deck, Deck, Deck opening in June at the APW Gallery. I’m staring at them right now and I want to scream, lol - they BOTHER me.
I always try to keep things in order. For the first show I did a “Wood”, second show I did a “Sketch”. So naturally “Print” should have been up on the list of things to do. As much as I would love to carve out these decks (and yes the thought has crossed my mind multiple times) I just can’t bring myself to do it. I can’t sell a carved woodblock - I just can’t. Those are the ONLY things I truly cannot part with. There’s something about it, I dunno…
So yea, since the print option went out the window, I decided to try to mimic it the best I could…in paint…horribly, lol. I’m really not feelin’ it but maybe someone out there will have a different opinion. Who knows.
Snipits will be posted shortly -so don’t get yur panties in a bunch ;)
SKETCH IT OUT Exhibition
Photos from the opening reception at APW Gallery on April 3rd, 2009
My reflection on last night’s opening…
Where to begin, where to begin..
It was a pretty good opening night, alot of people, alot of really fucking incredible drawings…but sadly alot of really mediocre-shouldnt-have-been-in-the-show-at-all-kinda work.
I’m not a hater, I’m just simply being honest.
First off the show was called “SKETCH IT OUT” so why the hell were there photographs in this show. That was my first pet peeve. Maybe I’m old fashioned , but if I’m told to sketch it out, my ass is grabbing a pen/pencil and paper and getting down to business. So to sum up my frustration:
• No my work would not be done in Adobe Illustrator
• No my work would not be a print out of something I did in Photoshop
• No my work would not be a PHOTOGRAPH
Now let’s be clear about something - I’m not saying the work mentioned above was not good - What I am saying is that it broke up the consistency of the show’s idea/theme.
I had to get that off my chest. Wooosaaaa…
The Revelation of Acia is SOLD!
Ladies and Gents,
I’m very proud to announce that The Revelation of Acia has been sold! Whoohoo! To be completely honest I had zero hopes of that even happening, but I’m happy to know that someone out there saw it and felt intrigued enough to want to have it in their possession. Yay!
Thank you whoever you are!
(And to those of you who haven’t made it to the show yet - you still have time! World of Imagination closes on March 29th, so head out to APW Gallery in Long Island City, NY and check it out before it comes down.)

World of Imagination Vol. 2 // Be there…cuz I will :)
World of Imagination Vol.2 Update
Acia is coming along well. I hoped that by this time I would be around 90% done…but that’s not the case. The placement of things seems a little off to me, so I needs to tinker with it a bit more - so back to the drawing board for me! I reeeaaally want to post what I have so far, cuz I really do digg it - but I rather it stay a surprise for y’all who come see the show :)
