Fantastic Folks

A couple days ago i shadowed Dhundee over to see his buddies at Liberty Studios.

Ms Gina Bevilacqua is a dope producer who's also a sucker for mid-seventies folk music 'my parents used to always listen to...and now all of a sudden i cant get enough of it.' She threw a couple tracks on and i summed up her parents as cool-ass west coast hippies. 

We had a geeked convo on typography....particularly title treatments.

yay.

check out some of her work HERE.

.....and definitely peep Rope A Dope. 

The other half of the Hosting Dream Team was Mr Rudolf Bekker. This kind Dutchman offered me bier before introducing himself - proper!

His photography is.....milky. Yes - milky. I want to either drink it or bath in it....havent decided yet. I pulled some selects but be sure to take a gander at his portfolio site H E R E.

...and here's a collabo of their's i dug up [ she produced / he stars in ]:

New Yankees stadium

Billy invited me out to a ball game at the new and fancy Yankees Stadium and it was a gorgeous day in the sun. Although our team lost (Indians), I think I learned a thing or two about the game. The people on the field are called players, not men. A pitcher throws the ball and a catcher, well duh, catches it. There are 9 innings, not 8. And they serve sushi at the stadium.

Lisa vs Diddy

The oh so wonderful Lisa decided to bring a few of her friends to NY to celebrate the big 3-0. The night started at our favorite neighborhood spot, Abistro, for a yummy yummy dinner and after that we took the party over to the annual Prince vs Michael Jackson dance party at BLVD. 

Can't wait to see what you do for your 40th, Lisa! Fly us all out to Phi Phi, perhaps perhaps?

This little light of mine

Meet Ms. Betty Baldwin

She is a cute little Schwinn New World from back in the day when things were cool...

Took me two wonderful hours in the sun, but I sure made her shine.

T H A N K // Y O U

Hello Hello pwitty interweb people. I figured i'd momentarily step out of my cacoon to post about this fantastical happening.

So as you read above in my Craigslist post i lost one of my sketchbooks. About a week later i get this in the mail:

Yep, some good folks found my book AND mailed it to me! > Craigslist had nothing to do with it ]

Now i know that goofy 'If Found' stickers on stuff look ridiculous but as helmets do - they save lives.

So, here are some scans of the inside; ive attacked this one for about a year.
...and since i didnt expect to see this book again i quickly moved on to the next.

So far:
Thanks ___________ for being kind enough to return it to me. Im shooting karma pellets your way.

Brooklyn Signage

I got to check out the Brooklyn Storefront Exhibit at Brooklyn Historical Society right before it closed - and was left much more educated about our little borough. The stories that go with the beautiful pictures (by James and Karla Murray) were all so heart warming and made me want to go out of my way to keep the buck in Brooklyn.
