Nonstop to Mississippi

While some girls spend their spring break taking their shirts off, I spent mine making t-shirts to put on.

I printed last night.

I liked this one so much that I wore it today.

hearts and dollar signs...kind of hard to see, but the two on the left are covered with a pattern of, yep, you guessed it, HEARTS AND DOLLAR SIGNS!

I am going to print more and soon I will put them on obsessive consumption to sell.
Anyone interested?

I finished drawing some more credit card statements too.

We switched out our studio space and our living room over christmas break, but I haven't gotten around to posting pictures until now. Oh, so very exciting.

bookcases in living room. They are a disaster.

Clifton and I took a 45 minute drive to see Philadelphia, MS.
There wasn't much to see.
This is a water tower.
.
Martin Luther King visited Philadelphia and stood on the courthouse steps after the killings of three civil rights workers in 1964. Simon and Garfunkel wrote a song about the three workers (he was my brother?). Watch Mississippi Burning (starring my favorite old man actor of the moment, gene hackman) it is all about the tragic events that took place that summer. Wilem (or however you spell his first name) Defoe is in it too. yessss.

The first time I visited this place was in 1997 or was is 1998... on a school trip for a civil rights history class that I was taking. I NEVER would have thought that seven years later I would be living less than an hour away.


This is a seafood/steakhouse that was in the middle of no where on the way to philly. It was located at the end of a road. Very strange.
