THE BAD NEWS
TemporaryGallery is no more. Your probably thinking, 'Didn't it just open?' The answer is yes, but I guess the financial backer decided he wanted a gallery that focuses on Contemporary Chinese Artwork....it's a total 360. The strange part is that I guess all this went into effect the week that Insinuation opened (the show that I'm in) So last week I went to pick up my artwork and there was a new show with a bunch of work on Chairman Mao...it was the twilight zone.
Here's the dope part...I'm not exclusively represented anymore so if I decide to show my work I can do it anywhere. Here's the 'not dope' part, I don't really like showing at galleries so I won't be persueing that for now...but if yer a gallery and think you'd like to sell my artwork, I have a ton, I just won't be creating new work for wall.
JUNKPRINTS MOVES TO REDHOOK
Due to good karma and smart work I've landed an Amazing new work spot in Red Hook!!!! Yay look at the pics. Before this spot all my goodies were made out of my bredroom in a 10"x15" space. I share it with some other wicked etsy sellers, like CubistLiterature, and DesiraPesta and a bunch of other fun peeps.
Can't you just feel the love!

OVERWHELMED!!!
So last week I was Etsy's featured seller...Yah and all that goodness. Let me tell ya what a mad house it was (is) around this itty bitty apartment. Okay so I answered all 200 inquiries, within 2 hours or receiving them...gold star for customer service department! I've done invoices, packing slips and garment prep for all orders. I've shipped out about 1/3 of all the orders received between feb 27 to now... gold star for production department.
Sleep, you ask? well Robots don't sleep and I've sold my soul to the D.I.Y. gods in exchange for being changed into a robot ;)
All jokes aside...this has been pretty fun and I appreciate all the comments, inquiries and sales I've been bombarded with.

POWER OF WORDS
I am very intrigued with words that we give too much power to, such as Nigger. Check out what he has to say about the title of his new album. The most fascinating part of this is the reporters demeanor and reactions to his comments.

junkprints site beta
These days I've been feeling really techie. Me and the interenets have a real "intense" relationship. I absolutely love browsing and all the wonderful stuff that exists on line, love designing sites but when it comes to building sites, that part drives me a bit bonkers and I tent to hire a programmer for the dirty code stuff.
I recently completed Temporary Gallery's site (with out a programmer) and like how it turned out so that inspired me to give dookyblog.com a facelift. I always intended dookyblog to be a stand alone site but out of I guess lazyness it ended up a blogger blog. I love google as much as the next person and was super happy when they aquired blogger because it made the whole interface alot easier to use, but like all good sweaters I out grew them and am in the beta staged of dookyblog.com still attempting to export my blogger blog to this one...worpress keeps telling me it should be easy but i beg to differ ;) It's not like I can have only one pot on the stove...so I've takin' on junkprints.com.
Here's the goal: To get a few items up and for sale direcly through junkprints.com, while directing customers to my whole line which is showcased on etsy.com. Don't worry etsy, I'm not leaving you...just expanding. I tries OScommerce and zen cart as cart applications, and I was able to modift the CSS info to get the 'store' looking okay...but not great and I kept having stange security problems so for now I've settled on 'buy now' options for each item. Until I cand find a snazzy PHP programmer who wants a but of buisness. In the mean time These are screen shots of the site so far. Let me know yer thought...and any programmers out there, let's be friends!

Fresh off the presses! I just made this one today and it's on the site. I need to draw...just sit and draw and as part as my procrastination with drawing I've been designing these nifty huge bags. This one is already available for purchase. Think I'm just making one, so that I can keep making new ones...(and have time to draw)

Düsseldorf DOES NOT MESS AROUND!
A friend of mine sent this to me this morning, its a paper mache float of Bin Ladin bathing in blood (doesn't he look like a chef in tomato sauce) and was used along with Düsseldorf's Rose Monday Carnival. They must think that Americans are retards, and w/ the type of leadership we currently have, who could blame them! This parade looks like fun, they have a good sense of humor, 100 times better than the Macy's Day Parade! Read more here.

SAD SKATES

FADER: SANTOGOLD SHOW
Hey neglected step child blog. I forgot to tell ya all about the Santogold party I went to last Thursday. The Fader put it on so yes it was the place to be, but better than all that, this lady's performance was pretty good...her dancers were AMAZING! Like all things I have to put some things on blast, now, it's not that she doesn't sound good...it's that she sounds british ahhh, specifically like MIA. So that kind of makes her like Amy Winehouse (pls listen to Ester Phillips). Which is kinda lame (not to be confused with Lamé). I've know about here for a while now but after I started finding out about here I kinda got the phony vibe and that makes it hard for me to REALLY get down with Santogold. I must say, I'd rather listen to Santo and Amy more than most of the crap on the radio. Either way her stuff is worth checkin' out.
Big up to Mel D. ©ole Photography for the pic

APPLE BOTTOMS FOR NURSES?
Remember that mail order catalog, Fingerhut? think back to yer granny's house. They sell cheap electronics workout equipment, clothing jewelry and other sears reject items. I received a catalog from them in the mail today. So I started to flip through it and low and behold I saw Apple bottom scubs. Nelly must be maaaaaad broke cuz roc-a-pads was a joke and Nelly Nurse scubs should be too. You can even put them on lay-a-way just in case yer check from kaiser hasn't cleared yet.
