Claes Oldenburg>Simplicity Pattern 8643. Still, I’m looking forward to a satin hot dog pillow. Thank you eBay.

An uncle believed in brevity. Quick phone conversations and brief burst visits. No talk of the weather. Cut to the quick intensity. A social E.B. White that would leave my head tumbling to sort and catalog the exchange. All that said, 18 hours in Venice Beach, CA left me satisfied and wanting more.

I’d love a conversation with Blue Bird. Parked on a back street with an interior tent for privacy from my peepers left me intrigued. I’m not one to decorate my dashboard. But, this vertical shield makes a nice reef.

The morning was quiet. And, there’s something about cramped letters.

The Venice trees have a nice impressionist dress. When graffiti prompts a paint over I wish such a hand were at hand.

To celebrate the 2010 Armory Show we collaborated with featured artist Susan Collis to create a limited edition run of 100 tote bags. If you have a chance pay the show a visit.

Overnight an intriguing diagram of musicians, artists, actors and activists popped up on a wall outside the Fort Hamilton Parkway subway station. I wonder if it was the silhouetted gent. He was there last night and this morning. Whoever it was, OXO is an interesting place to start. But, then again, there aren’t many videos better than “Dance All Night.”

Close your eyes. Unhinge the front door. Inhale with a deep-chest. Hold. Savor. Open your eyes.
