ADELE

Since Winehouse will probably be dead with-in the year I'm going to have to transfer my Amy love to this British doll...
She's been around, so forgive this late post.
Given Amy Crackhouse's past week I feel an urgent need to replace her. SAVE BAT SHIT BEEHIVE!
For now, love Adele.

I felt this the best place to start anew this season. This is completely inspiring to see, and learn more about.

Currently

Location: A small box of a room, inside a bunker like outer box, that is the telecom/ emergency communication dept. aka work :(

Wearing: Thrift find, large collar winter- white hoodie with over sized buttons. Under the warm hoddie; a primo soft cotton T from express in a lovely regal purple, has a graphic Asian medallion detail in gold My favorite work pants (due to their comfort and ability to match everything I own) from Banana Republic SALE! Another thrifty/sale find some ALDO shoes that also match everything due to their black and brown and white coloration.

Reading: Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. Great historical fiction that takes place in a depression era traveling circus. To feel a little bit of summer warmth on these sub zero nights I've also been reading a novel, Last Summer by Michael Thomas Ford. It is rich with Provincetown beachy goodness. Romance and Drama; gay gay gay!

Watching: Project Runway! DID U SEE team Fierce's avant garde creation? BrILZ! Sad Idol auditons are also in the que.

Listening to: M.I.A. Sri Lankian, by way of NYC rapper hipster chic chick. Loving her culture crossing sound. Voice and style very similar to Peaches

Drinking: Always with the water! Trying to cut back on the boozy, such empty calories that are increasing my need to loose weight. ugh

Loving: Any form of moisturizer, for my lips, hands, and ass. Its cold and I'm cracking!

Artist Spotlight

Sisters etching 3.75" x 5.75"


Last year I ran across a collection of intaglio prints from eastern European artist Katarina Vavrov. The discovery was made at local gallery, up the street from where I live. Today, while killing time at work, um.. I mean doing "research", I ran across the print that I purchased (see above) last spring. I meant to blog about this much much sooner but had forgotten, until today!

Here is a very brief bio: Katarina Vavrova, born 1964 in Bratislava, Slovakia

1984 - 1990 Academy of Fine Arts at Bratislava, studied under Prof. Albin Brunovsky

1989 studied at the Academy Delle Arti, Perugia, Italy

Her works were presented in number of exhibitions in Europe, Japan and USA and she received large number of prizes at international art festivals, biennalesof ex libris, graphical competitions etc.

I encourage you to click these links and view her work : BestNetArt.com /

2008 ya'll

Happy New Year to everyone! Its hard to believe that another year has ended, time definitely speeds up as you age. If '08 goes faster then '07, then look out for warp speed.
Tis the season for New Years resolutions. I dread this because I hate to make promises to myself about not eating carbs, and refined sugars. So weight loss and fitness aren't in my resolutions this year. Rather they fall in line with overall goals.
So for 08 my resolution is to paint more, as well as, to connect with my body mind and spirit (be the Buddha). The first passion I discovered I had was painting. Just the act of pushing wet paint on canvas with a brush puts me on a higher plain. It's fitting that this be my NYR for 2008 because I've neglected my inner artist for to long. This is a painting I did a few months ago tittled 2Jellyfish. It hangs in my bathroom. (poor image quality=I snapped it with my cell)

*update on 2007's resolution to read more: I totally nailed this one! I've read a crap load this past year. A few of my favorites have been Call Me By Your Name Andre Aciman; Selfish and Perverse by Bob Smith; every book in the Tales of the City series Armistead Maupin (yes I read all eight of them, plus two others he wrote); and Mississippi Sissy by Kevin Sessums. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Sessums at a stop in Iowa City on his book tour. Later over coffee I was delighted to find out he was as smart and down to earth as his memoir suggested. So yes every book I listed above falls into a GLBT category but I also read The Private Lives of the Impressionists and other great non gay books. Those were just some of my favs. in '07

now for something fun :MUSIC MASH UP of the 25 most popular songs of '07 according to Billboard mixed by DJ Earworm (click it)

HAPPY 08 Blog Bitches!

It has come to my attention that the lastest slag term for you taint is Grundel. Say it with me now ... GRUNDEL \Grun"del\, n. Isnt that fantasticular? Go forth and spread the word.
So to review, Grundel equals tain, or chode, or fleshy mound between the twins and the devils onion!.
