Deanna took this photo of me, she said the light was good for me. (Oh and that I looked handsome.) When does the blog get completely gratuitous? I guess when I'm traveling and don't have B&W photos to put up, I do these travel posts, that start feeling creepy, like I'm just advertising my life. But fuck it, I do it for my friends and the web-lurkers, and loyal Toy Pawns.
While working, instead of the very so-cal chips and salsa, in Italy we rock Sardinian flat-bread and olive spread.
"I call this 'scape, 'Sunset over Nuoro.' # 537 out of 1.2 billion prints made." –Juergen LeRisky
I was being interviewed by a surfing magazine, and a skater dude at the same time. Deanna covered the event.
Then I painted some clouds in my boxers, unsuccessfully I might add.
This is Biancone and Vincenzo cutting a giant wooden word bubble for me. Vincenzo calls it "The Tongue." These guys are the hardest workers ever! We got so ahead of ourselves, that we were able to take the weekend off. (post of that coming soon)
Typical artist form, this is how I help these guys make "my art."
