Le Sigh
So I spent the last week in New York City. It was very cool.
You can see pictures here.
I am a little sad now. I had been looking forward to being there for the past couple of months and now it's over.
I loved being in New York. Maybe I can live there one day.
Some of the high lights of my trip are as followed:
Meeting Craig of Cubist Literature!
We hung out and I got to see his amazing studio, and meet some of the other artists that work there.
It was fun times. Unfortunately I left my camera at home...sad....
I got to hang out with my friend Butch. We had a really good time, and it was so nice seeing a familiar face from home. We were room mates in Portland, and it was nice to hang out with him again.
I went to some amazing museums and saw the Henry Darger exhibit, the Cai Guo-Qiang exhibit, and the MoMa Collection. Oh, and I also went to the Met.
I drank lots of good coffee, and ate lots of good food, including Pho (which I haven't had in months) at this great place in China Town called Pho Bang :)
I managed to figure out the Subway without getting lost, or dieing. I am pretty proud of myself for that...
Yeah, it was great and I didn't want to go home.
Yesterday was my last day and it wasn't as great...I had the migraine from hell and basically slept all day.
I also watched the entire season of Flight of the Condors. This was my favorite song, and was actually filmed not far from Butch's apartment in Williamsburg....
I did manage to feel better towards the end of the day, so Butch and I went to drop off my paintings at the Fact and Fancy Gallery in Downtown Brooklyn.
They open Saturday June 21st, and there is a reception from 4pm-8pm.
They are located at
75B Hoyt Street, in Brooklyn New York in case you might like to go, which I think you should if you live close by!!
Then Butch and I went out for dinner at a Thai Place that served his rice in a heart shape. Cute!
And then we walked over the Brooklyn bridge while the sun set...it was a perfect ending.....
