Scissormen

Windy and I went with a big group of folks last night to the Family Wash in East Nashville to see the Scissormen play. Those boys can play and Ted picks up most everything with a flat surface in the bar to use as a slide! Go see them if you ever get a chance. The have a new DVD/CD BIG SHOES out now. The documentary is by Robert Mugge! I had spoken to Ted some weeks back about Rick Saunders for an article I'm working on about him so I made him a guitar to say thanks for his time and for the music he plays. He liked it alot and played it right outside the bar. I forgot my camera but luckily a friend of Ted's took a picture with his phone and was nice enough to email it to me. The rest of the pictures are in our backyard.

Hastings Christmas Parade

This is how my truck looked for the 2007 Hastings Christmas Parade. My good friend Karen Coker was teaching at the O.U.R. Center and made these fish with the kids. They used paper bags and tempera paint and came out awesome. Karen teaches at the Art Institute of Jacksonville now. I miss her.

Honus Wagner

Uncle Stevo from Simple G's gave me three glass paper weight blanks in 2008 and it took me until 2009 to put anything in them. I made this one after reading about Mr. Wagner and someone bought it from Simple Gestures. If I were smart I'd make more and send em' down to Sue and Steve. Maybe one of Ring Finger Brown.

Anastasia Branch Library

Harold George let me hang this piece at the Anastasia Branch Library. It's eight feet tall by four feet wide on a two by four frame. It's heavy in more ways than one. It's called the square root of eighty one makes me cry.
