UK



I'm going to be doing a mini tour of the UK this January because I've got an exhibition with the brilliantly talented Lizzy Stewart @ Here Gallery in Bristol. The exhibit, entitled Land & Sky, opens on Thursday January 21 from 7-9 pm @ Here Gallery which is located at : 108 Stokes Croft, Bristol, BS1 3RU, UK. We'll both be there, and I'll actually be in Bristol all week leading up to the opening.. I'm also going to be making the rounds in London, Liverpool and Edinburgh.. where one may be able to find me hanging around Analogue Books w/ Russell, Julie & little Rudy.. Hope to see you out and about and maybe we can watch the Gunners make that push for the championship!

CHICAGO



I had an amazing few weeks in Chicago working on a rad project for Puma.. & got to hang out with friends I've literally known since I was 5, awesome to see you Eric & Catherine (soon to be Dr.)! Also, got to hang out with the always awesome Ben Floeter @ Suddenly It's Real (congrats to you and mama Natalie!), Floyd Davis @ Artpentry & thanks to Cody Hudson for the much anticipated & super awesome lunch @ Hot Dougs's.



We all went to some awesome restaurants that I just can't stop saying enough great things about: The Publican, Lula Cafe, Xoco, Frontera Grill and Orange. I also went to the Christkindlmarket like everyday for brat's w/ kraut and coco.. so rad.



Eric told me that Chicago has the world's largest reflective bean, which is located in Millennium Park, which leads me to think that there are other reflective bean sculptures of lesser grandeur out in the world... which is sort of weird. Anyway... CHICAGO = AWESOME!!!
