Pollution always makes for a great sunset!

They seem to really like this tree outside my house, and go ape shit when another Raccoon comes around. This one was as unhappy as it looks!

The insidiousness of  the oil spill in the gulf clearly had an affect on me……..

Years back in San Fransisco I stumbled across one of Logan’s murals. Now at the time I had very little patients for stencils and wheat paste because of the hard work it took me to hand paint everything. I thought that this style of application  was a cop out in the overall sense of things (and lets be realistic, hand painting is always better, right?).

But, to the contrary I almost shit myself with excitement as I stood in front of Logan’s work. I didn’t know of him at the time and immediately tried to come up with a mental picture of who this person might be. I was so impressed with his level of detail. No one was really using very layered stencil work to depict an almost realistic urban setting. His work changed my perspective on stenciling instantly. His level of detail is so hyper is almost an OCD savant like approach to making art. I have a lot of respect for those who push themselves past the norm and he proves that any style of application can be pushed to a higher plain……..I am always looking forwards to his next piece.
