King of The Jungle

“Dust everywhere… and out of that emerged this beautiful boy with the bluest eyes I’d ever seen, holding his hand out to help me to my feet.” – Marie Lu, Legend. We ate sushi and spaghetti for Thanksgiving last week with a giggly group of old and new friends in the remote Costa Rican surf/yoga mecca of Nosara, a place my wife and I hold deeply sacred.

Thank You, San Francisco!

The biggest show of my life just ended and I can only say, WOW! Thanks to all of you who swamped the opening and kept coming. Thanks to the SF Chronicle for the writeup the day before kickoff. Chronicle legend, Leah Garchik, brought the love! And to Marin Mag for the killer review after. Hells Yeah! I could not have imagined a more luscious gallery space. And having my dad with me was such a bonus! And my lady! And violins! And friends galore! Next Up – a Group Show in Wynwoo

Is 13 Unlucky?

“Why is there no 13th floor on that building?” my 5-yr-old son asked, his head tilted back. Sure enough, spray-painted on the side of the tall, fancy, under-construction hotel were large, red numbers for each floor level. They skipped from 12 to 14. “Some people believe 13 is an unlucky number, so some buildings don’t have 13th floors,” I said. “But why?” my boy pressed. Another vexing inquiry from the objective observer. I’m not superstitious. I’ll swagger under every ladde

Too Much Stuff

I currently live in a 2600 square foot home that I consider a mansion after five years on a 928 sf Sausalito houseboat.
