Quantum Weeping


....emotions seem to happen without our approval.... Duality.... Irony.... Hypocrisy...

One thing and the other.... like a quanta passing through two pin pricks in a piece of paper simultaneously... and passing through the same pin prick simultaneously as well...

I had just come from martial arts class.

I had run home to shower and change, and my muscles were still hot and I was still flush with adrenaline, when I jumped into the car to go to the party.



I was driving down an unlit street in Venice, when a couple...

If we live our lives fearing something, then the thing that we fear becomes our lives...

Art must wound and stab us...
...must be the axe for the frozen seas inside us...


I'm numb from the brain down...

A real gallery... real rich people... really bentleys and rolls royces they're valet parking...

Not like it's all about the money but damn!

My soul is alternately riddled with angst, trepidation, fear, and heartache; as well as excitement, confidence, joy, and hopefulness...

48 hours 'til the bomb goes off...
48 hours 'til the gallery opens its doors, and I'll pass through the threshold between being a hopeful artist to being a professional...
