I am not good at summing up my experiences. I want to include every detail and it is not possible, even though I take pictures constantly and write myself numerous notes as if I intended to summarize all things.

One thing that did come up amidst the alternative space weekend art business, which has come up previously and does not take long to express: this image, known as “Tidal Knave,” is the main picture that I seem to sell a 8.5×11 page print or 5×7 grating card of at every show, going back to 2010. Which I appreciate! But it confounds me that most people seem unaware of the assault the creature has taken.

How is the scene interesting without that part? Without that it is just a strange inaccurate humanoid animal in the wrong part of the country standing on a noticeably more realistic beach and looking at the ground! I cannot have people thinking I approve of this dork! Something bad MUST be happening to it.

Also, this is what you see if the most recent 17×22 inch print jumps off the wall, surely in search of doing more punishment.
