Self Portrait #12




It's All I Think About, May 2009




I've been listening to a lot of Magnetic Fields lately, reading lots of Robert Crumb comics, and am redesigning my website. I'm making christmas cards based on the large amount of decorations that I see around Bushwick that I love. In Livingston (NJ) there were decorations but they were extremely modest and WASPy, boring even. Or incredibly suburban, blow up cartoonish depictions of Santa Claus and the omnipresent Snowman. But Brooklyn does it up right and goes all out, with tons of blinking, multicolored lights, or a two toned pattern, as well as the blow up floatie doll things and those signs in the windows that shriek HAPPY HOLDAYS!!! FELIZ NAVIDAD! HEY LOOK, A MENORAH TOO! So yeah, those pictures combined with some funny anecdote will be a lovely makeshift Holiday gift. Have a good week! And, more work soon.
