Just a few more days and you will all be able to take
"Rake At The Gates Of Hell", paper collage, 2010
home your long anticipated 5" x 7"s from the Negotiations & Love Songs show, not to mention the limited edition show catalogs! A few are still available; contact La Familia Gallery. The show was fantastic so thank you all once again for your support and enthusiasm for my work. Stay tuned for details on the next series now in the works! Caudled Milk and Swiss Cake.

And now a few messages for our friends behind the lines:
Well, you took me for a ride
you beat me to the gun
And from the other side,
well you came undone

Oh I've got a brand new shiny helmet
and a pair of kinky boots

Negotiations & Love Songs

My new show opening at La Familia Gallery has been a long yet mostly fun project. The first piece was created two years ago as a sketch and the last 5 x 7 collage in the series finished last month. However, getting the show catalog laid out and printed was still ahead and then hanging all 50 pieces a challenge as well; the show has become more of an installation than I had imagined and I love it.

A consultation with Swisscake last week led to a scramble the last few days but as I said yesterday evening, "Ah, god love ya Misses P; I do believe it's working".

Oh, I thought I heard the Ol' Man say,
Tomorrow ye will get your pay,
An it's time for us to leave her!
The work wuz hard an' the voyage wuz long,
Leave her, Johnny, Leave her!
The sea was high an' the gales wuz strong.
An it's time for us to leave her!
-Leave Her Johnny
