Workhorse

Jake is not my hero, well kinda, but he never wanted to be a role model.

This guy is my hero. Ever since I first found out about him on SR, I have been inspired by the sheer amount of godly effort he puts out on his work. He makes my whining about not having enough time look silly. The cuts he makes on one canvas alone would demolish the number of cuts in my entire body of stencil-work.

Sometimes I wonder why all the artists I find inspriring live in SF or NYC. It's frustrating. After all they have to be some of the most expensive places in the US to live. There's too much "sex in the city" mentality for me in most of those places, I assume. Which is just stupid, but it's there in my brain. He's got a show in SF. If you live there and don't go. Consider yourself lesser than you would be if you went. He's that good.

In other art show news, the man the myth the legend, the hardest working man in the Denver multi-discipline scene; opens another show tomorrow, Friday Night 3/17, the day of green. He would probably scoff at the sheer insolence of that eggregious run-on sentance if he were an pure academic. But he's not, He's Jake Adam York and he has something to offer. See it live. Check the blog for details. . . .

ok sorry, had a long time out there to fix a parsing module that would not do what i wanted.

Problem solved with good old fashioned trickery.

Make the computer think you're allowing it to be as stubborn as it wants to be but the whole time, you're sending your armies around the mountains to flank it.

Brill Illustrator 1 told me, "Well I'm glad YOU'RE here." Which made me feel good. At the same time, it's direct commentary about the fact that our boss walked out of my office when BrillIll 1 began to note the serious issue that we were having.

Is everyone's office this way? Are the inmates really running the assylum? Why do I keep getting caught in parent-mode?

Stupid childhood...
