And Thus Ends a Great Career

Last night's NFC Championship has me bummed. One of the league's greatest quarterbacks ended his career on an interception (or so it seems). I wrote a poem that I think embodies my bleak feelings.

Christmas Presents

I made a couple pieces for Christmas. Here's two of them-Well! That's all for right now. Just thought I'd share.

LA Pics

So, I'm back from LA. It was a good time.

This thing scared and confused me. It's on top of a pharmacy. Nothing says drugs like a hobo-clown with a woman's body.
We were supposed to watch these little guys race, but I got really into Wii Tennis and made us late. So, no racing.Double, Double Animal Style. Diner. Old guys.
And here's the show!
I just want to leave you with this. It plays over and over in my mind. I hope it does the same for you.

Going to LA!!

I've got myself all packed and ready to go to LA. I put together a website and am working on a business card, so I look all sorts of professional. The website is a little shaky (for some reason buttons disappear in Safari and things tend to float around funny in everything else), but it's getting there.

Check it out! www.aaronhitchcock.com Tell me what you think.

When we land in LA I'm going to watch turtle racing. I'm told it's fun, but doesn't it sound like watching paint dry or the grass grow? There is betting involved. Oh, dear.

Sneak-Peak

It's been awhile. I know. But I just finished some great pieces that are going out to LA today for a show opening up on Nov. 17th at Black Maria Gallery. The Show is called "Skip the Mall." I will be representing Baby Gap. Go see it if you are in LA, otherwise- bask in the glow of your computer screen. Enjoy!


"Blues for Little Boys."

Ice-Cream @ Barometer

This Saturday was the opening of Barometer's Ice-Cream show. Great opening. Lot's of fun folks and ice-cream. I ate bacon ice-cream topped with syrup. It was surprisingly good. There was also some cheddar and jalapeno ice-cream and rosemary ice-cream. The work was outstanding. There were some great paintings, cross-stitch, crocheted ice-cream cozies, an ice-cream chandelier and some of Jenna Wainwright's jewelry. It's all good fun and it's up through November, so go check it out.

What the F have I Been Up to

If you were to gauge my life by my blog you would think I were dead or under the power of a magic sleeping spell, waiting to be freed by the single kiss of a good knight, who in this story is played by a girl and not a guy, because this is my fantasy and not your little sister's.

I finished this drawing for my friend Jenny, for no other reason than she rules. I also have two pieces in a ice-cream themed group show at Barometer this weekend. I'll post images of my work later this week as a teaser. The show is Saturday from 6-9pm. Come, look, love, be loved.
