Weather:
Pretty much perfect.

I finished up the rabbit commision of art brick-a-brack. It looks better in real life. I’ll post some pictures next week.

Upcoming things to keep in mind, entrys for the Such Luck Springtime Food zine are due June 1st. Opening night for the board show at EXP is Friday June 8th. More details and a flyer when I get them. “People spectacular & radical junk” photographs by Tony Francesconi opens at Stubbs Coffee 3827 N Lincoln Ave. on Saturday June 9th. Be there 6-10pm. It runs all month.

In more immediate upcoming events, Juan and Danielle get matrimonialized tomorrow. Raise a glass and toast thier happiness. They’re the swellest of the swells.

Marks been painting a bunch, Alex sells hot dogs, Spencer is jobless, Lou’s almost on summer vacation, and next week I get my arm drilled. Onto the pictures…

I’ve been seeing these around lately. I can’t tell if it’s serious or a parody or what’s going on but they seem to be about God and making Jesus cry blood if you get divorced and writing letters to China. Pretty sweet!

Marriage and Mary paste ups

Last Friday we checked out the Legacy opening. I was pretty floored. Stop in and check it out while its up. The Portland expat’s put together quite a display. This is a section of a larger piece by Mike.
