River Moment.
The opening for the Printed show at Crewest Gallery was this past Sat night. The show looks great. Lots of awesome art and rare prints from many local artists on the walls and most of it is priced to sell. This has to do with the Hudson River why? Because at the opening, I ran into a certain Mr. Trees, who also had art in the show. It was great to see him and I got to tell him about this cool moment on the Hudson River (this past summer on Switchback).
All along the river, we would dock at various boat houses and yacht clubs to refuel, or meet people, or whatever. Also all along the river, there are train tracks that graffiti covered freight trains run on. The whole way down the river I found myself squinting any time I’d see a train, looking to see if I could recognize anyone I knew, or knew of, amongst the mashup of graffiti. Mostly I could never see it clear enough, but this one time we were docked at this little yacht club that actually had train tracks running between the docks and the boat house. It was weird because when a train passes through, you have to wait to get to either the boat house or your boat, and sometimes the trains are not short. Well, I got stuck waiting for this long train to pass, and as I was watching that train pass by, I saw a Mr. Trees tree, looking super fresh on the side of that train.
It was rad. Totally made my day – and then made my day again getting to tell him about it in person on Sat night 
Come to my art exhibit Sat night!!
I have lots of new work!! I’ve been super busy since getting back from the Hudson River. I was planning on having a slide show presentation of the photo’s I shot on “Swimming Cities of Switchback Sea” but that will have to wait until I am done with installing my 1/4 of this show opening on Sat night.
I’m going to be displaying pieces in all my favorite media including painted and printed wood panels, image transfers, and glass over welded reused bicycle cogs. I’ll also have a self-published edition of my first photo zine (with the help of an inherited printer). It’s the cream of my crop of bicycle photo’s from over the years and over the country. I’m really, really excited about it because I’ve been wanting to do this for a-w-h-i-l-e. And of course I’ll be wearing my favorite smock to the opening 
Looking forward to seeing everyone there!!
