Living the Dream

My photo
I grew up at "the end of the road" in the very small size woodsy town called Ely in way northern Minnesota (5hrs north of Minneapolis) and quickly got out ;) Went to MCAE art school for 11th and 12th grade in Minneapolis. After that I just journeyed around a bunch!, a bunch a bunch! from Arizona to Colorado, from Seattle to San Francisco and every where around them, with of course the adventure to Europe and traveling all over from Spain to Amsterdam judging the Cannabis Cup to skiing down the Swiss Alps, seeing the Dali museum and sitting at Jim Morrison's grave. I now live in Seattle with friends and family spread out all over, I love to paint and to pay the bills I've worked lots of jobs but I'm good with people so restaurant work has made for a good fit. Plus with the whole jump up and go traveling thing. What else, what else... I don't know there's tons, look for the book. And Hey! Please comment (remember you need to follow me to comment) and I'm still painting so there's often new stuff, I'd love to have you as a follower and hear your comments, or as known on my page a dream makers :)
Spit Balls and Coffee
Not really "spit balls" but rolled balls of napkin
It's a good size, there's a quarter their for scale. 

So at the art school there was a Denny's across the
street that you can imagine was often filled with brook ass, 
coffee drinking, stay for hours and not order or tip 
anything art students. Well I was certainly no exception,
I used to do these intricate patterns and designs as I tore
pieces from the napkin sitting and talking with friends.
This one took about two hours or so and although they
wouldn't generally let me sit there and do this that long, 
they made an exception. Did this in 1992.

  1. How is it that you had a camera to take a photo of this. Love the tip. Not only does the server get to clean up you spit ball art, but they also get a Nickle. great.
