Truth thru Art

Yet another reason why I love artists (video below).  I’ve loved Donny Millers‘ work for a long time.  I think work like this harkens back to original pursuit of art, and philosophy, theology, music, mathematics, etc… – the pursuit is about Truth.  Truth with a lower case “t” creates a pathway for Truth with a [...]

Genius Ideas

Just got an email from good buddy Scott Henning regarding a totally rad revelation:

New Investment Advice:
If you had purchased $1,000.00 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago you would have $49.00 left.
With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00.
With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.
But, if you [...]

More new stuff

Working on some new paintings.  Bigger versions of the horizons.  Fun, Simple.  Enjoying the simple act of putting paint on a canvas and not thinking too much about it.  Almost has a Mark Rothko feel to it, but not as fuzzy.  And not quite as subject oriented as a Wolfgang Bloch piece.  I guess if [...]

Let’s go to Afghanistan. I’m serious

Skateistan is non-profit group that has formed in Afghanistan to create recreational opportunities for the youth.

I want to go and help.  I am totally serious.  I need a team of skaters, artists, musicians, documenters (photo/video) and builders.
We are going to raise funds.  Bring boards and skate stuff.  Built some ramps and rails.  Do an art [...]

Hot Neoprene!

It’s a weird thing to know that somewhere out there in the blogosphere there might be someone mentioning your name and taking pictures of you in skin tight garnishings.  It’s less weird when you make such a discovery and it happens to be a friend of yours…
Found this on the new Delve blog

I’m a PC (they still don’t get it)

Those guys at microsoft just don’t get it, and it’s kinda hilarious.  This video reminds me of the those silly Christian videos where they try to rip off stuff that’s already happening in culture and give it a Christian twist.  Epic Fail.
Here’s there new ad campaign, just bad.

New desk (recycled coffee table)

Simple desk solution.  Add longer legs to an already existing coffee table.  We need a desk, but we don’t exactly have the cash on hand to buy one (this week).  So I added 11 inches onto the bottom of our previous coffee table.  I think it works, for now at least.

Jesus is my friend!

Oh gee whiz!

Thanks for the hot tip Samuel!
Do you ever wonder what these people are doing now?  That drummers’ kit is kick ass though – sunburst acrylic, dang.

Coffe Table update

Scored this rad piece of wood from an antique store a week ago and put some legs on it for use as a coffee table.  I like it, Heather is not into it.  It’s been bringing up all these simple, existential questions such as: What is a coffee table?  What is the purpose of a [...]
