jimbobazooka Flag Weeks end Grad orals went well. I was the chairman of Brant's committee and was very pleased and even surprised by the applause. But is was a long day.Walked over to the aquatic center, it was in the 90s yesterday, and swam laps. Stephanie my teaching assistant showed up and Susan said she would also be there.After that met up with Ken at Flatbed to say hello to Luis Jimenez who was in town to make some prints. We whisked him a away for drinks and the gallery had to call him and tell him to get back there as there was a reception for him that started 15 minutes ago. This is one of my favorite prints of his. I wish I owned one. I do have a large litho I helped print as part of our Guest Artist in Printmaking. I remember first seeing his sculpture at the Long Beach Museum of Art in the 70's. We both share a friend, Jeffrey and dealer at ACA Galleries. Good to see him and hope to have him back in town. After leaving Luis to is fans Ken and I went to Dog & Duck for food and beers and stayed a bit too long.Slow going in studio today.Latter will get to Home Depot for Weed & Feed, mulch, maybe plants and other garden things.

jimbobazooka Flag grads Ran into three former grad students, LR JW BK , early this week at D&D. Trough 5x7 exhibit that went to Conduit in Dallas, JD looks to have stuff in the Project Room soon. NW, I think want to come down to see some of J's stuff, maybe my paintings too.All 2nd year grads pasted their oral exams. I glad they are over, probably not as much as they are but fridays are now open. With print grads and now 2nds, fridays have been full.Arrived on time, early, to grad celebration party friday at EC's. Stayed late, for me, but others were arriving as I left.All and everyone should be more of them selves when doing.Tags: gradsCurrent Mood: hum or humCurrent Music: erika.net - Roscoe Holcomb - Little Bessie

jimbobazooka Flag um Been a while, must have been busy, classes and such. But have kept to swimming between classes on MW during the noon hours.TDH came as a visiting artist and delivered a good lecture/slide show. Last time I heard him speak he was crazy but this time not. Very good insightful presentation.Day of class critiques on Wednesday but only got about half way through with half the students so it will continue next Wednesday.Scared some tricktreaters on monday and passed out candy. Too much traffic to get home before dark but had a good amount of visitors. What is it about driving around in a car until they see a porch light on to get out a stand with their bag out.JY dad passed this week.Finally had day off for studio, painting in the morning. Still a question.Bought some studio supplies, bought a good thick bathroom for after swims at Barton during the cold months.Talked with JC in LA about a plan of what to do with my art that she owns. She's my biggest collector, I think about 18 things.Half way through grads have major group critiques called 30 hour oral exams tomorrow. I'll be sitting in one one, a lottery member of another and chairman of another.JT has an opening tomorrow at Slugfest. WC has one too.It's November.Tags: artists, critiques, grads, halloween, opening, schoolCurrent Mood: good enoughCurrent Music: Resonance104.4FM

jimbobazooka Flag Classes on Wednesday, meeting with BW and an SGC meeting over lunch hour.Thursday, what happened? Oh yes. Teeth cleaning, lots of red wine and expresso stains and then reading group at night. Much more in depth discussion on Wise Blood with JG now part of the group. Did get some painting time in.Friday, more painting. Then print critique of SW at her studio with faculty and most grads. Dinner with KH at Hoover's and then over to PD's beautiful home for poker and italy reunion.bottomChips and treats courtesy of PDIn attendance: PD, BL, SM and husband S. Much good snacks, drinks and talk. BL curious about blogs and journal. Think it was well past 3AM when I left with my winnings of one dollar.Slept in. Didn't do much more that read paper, drink green tea after a single expresso, started a water color and ate some fruit and yogurt.When to Barton Springs at 4:00 for a swim. Cool but sunny and fair. Wonderful clear water with few swimmers. Duck on lawn visiting and ignoring people.On way home stopped at CM and saw SM. She's stressing but it sounds like she's getting the writing she needs to get in done.Now back to the porch and The Blind Assassin and Tuscan red wine.Another grad critique tomorrow, visiting artist lecture and reception following. Another busy week.Tags: class, dinner, grads, painting, poker, swimmingCurrent Mood: fine and dandyCurrent Music: erika.net - Radio, Wu Bistdu Gewessen vor Prohibition - Naft

This is me This is you We're all here 'cause We're not all there. and so on and on ***Tumblin’ Dice***Women think I’m tasty, but they’re always tryin’ to waste me And make me burn the candle right down, But baby, baby, I don’t need no jewels in my crown. ’cause all you women is low down gamblers, Cheatin’ like I don’t know how, But baby, baby, there’s fever in the funk house now. This low down bitchin’ got my poor feet a itchin’, You know you know the duece is still wild. Baby, I can’t stay, you got to roll me And call me the tumblin’ dice. Always in a hurry, I never stop to worry, Don’t you see the time flashin’ by. Honey, got no money, I’m all sixes and sevens and nines. Say now, baby, I’m the rank outsider, You can be my partner in crime. But baby, I can’t stay, You got to roll me and call me the tumblin’, Roll me and call me the tumblin’ dice. Oh, my, my, my, I’m the lone crap shooter, Playin’ the field ev’ry night. Baby, can’t stay, You got to roll me and call me the tumblin’ dice, (call me the tumblin’) Got to roll me, got to roll me, got to roll me (oh yeah) Got to roll me. got to roll me, got to roll me ( keep on rolling, keep on rolling)
