FLORIDA


So I am dreaming again. The forecast is kinda bumming out. I wonder whether to invest time in travel. I hope for sun although I fear sunburn. I don't want to be driving in the storm with lightning and thunder. It is beautiful to see the storm in the horizon. I do not feel the safest while traveling in that type of weather.

I had dreamed of Spain - I hope to postpone that until Summer 2018
Japan will happen when the time is right.
We were going to road trip to the Southern US but work and commitments got most of our time. I was hoping to drive to North Carolina - either towards Asheville or along the Outer Banks next week but the weather is not in our favor.
California was a crazy opportunity and that I realized would pull me away from where I wanted to be and involved a lot of movement. I want stillness and waves. I want a sunset. I want painted skies and glistening water.

Birthday Month is the Best Month!

Happy August! I am partial to the number 8. Infinity!

I am making choices. No one else can make my choices for me and any choice is the right choice. I am not worried. I am not stressed. I am sheltered. I am working at home. I want clean. I want space. Life is really weird. I am sitting here like Ariel in her Grotto. Happy.

Reflections (8/14/17):
Ocean City, Maryland is not very far away. The drive is not bad. I prefer driving down Route 404 than taking US-50 all the way down. In the past month, I have visited twice with very special people.
8/1-2: Thunderbird Beach Motel was right next to the beach and guaranteed parking. We had access to the pool and changing rooms even after we checked out. It was nice. During this visit, I ended up purchasing nail polish from Del Sol. Thier store was super cool and their products are amazing because they change colors. I hesitate to recommend their nail polish because they are fun but they chip easily and the pigment is very light and requires multiple layers for full-color coverage. The color change does not seem as apparent although I admit that the skies have been cloudy and I have not been able to directly expose the color to sunlight. Basically, they are cool but not that cool.

This summer we went to New Jersey and Minnesota. Both trips were super fun and amazing. I am hoping to work on those reflections soon.

I had originally intended to go to Spain in August and that did not happen to I dreamed of going to California. I decided to stay more local this month because I really wanted to rest and ground myself. I wanted to be near people I care about. I thought about going to other places by car. All can be done in the future eventually.  --- Virginia? North Carolina. Florida? Louisiana? New York?

CANADA! Plans are in the works for Toronto in November and possibly Victoria, British Columbia and Edmonton, Alberta at some point in the future.

Focus.

They Live (1989), Shepard Fairley "Andre the Giant Has a Posse" (1989)

I travel the world looking for Street Art. Public Masterpieces. Play Grounds. Places of Rest.

Writing on the Wall.

Work, Design. What is your aim?

My thoughts are fragmented and I feel like I am having fun putting the pieces together. Trying to figure out time and space. Future? Plans.

Shepard Fairley (1972 -       )

"

HERE IS WHAT A FEW OTHER RELATIVE AUTHORITIES HAVE TO SAY ABOUT STICKERS:

Dalek – Graffiti writer, known for his space monkeys
#1 Stickers are a great way to meet people.
#2 I like stickers because they are fun to slap all over the place.
#3 It is a great way to get your imagery out all over the world.
#4 People love stickers.
#5 I like to collect stickers. They are like toys…or trading cards.
#6 It’s like getting up.
#7 They look good in bathroom stalls.
#8 They are easier to carry about than a can of flat black.
#9 I just want to be like Shepard Fairey.
#10 Beats wheat pasting.
#11 They are great for taping up boxes.
#12 Can be used to get the lint off of my black shirts."

I am going to make art. OR sleep and rest and get inspired to make art.

Apologies for the scattered thoughts. I am hoping to return to this with a better eye and edit the content. I appreciate all the resources that have been published. Wheels have already been made. We just need to use them and work together. Ever try to push a cart when the wheels were pointed in different directions? Or stuck with junk in the axels.

Obey reminded me of "They Live" (1989)
