The three paintings I did for Leanna Lin presents Campy Crush’s Banana Split Ladies art show Sacramental Jupiter, Between Harmony and Invention, and The Creation of Understanding are still for sale!
If I don’t sell these before the show ends, they are going to gather dust in my closet for years to come. I don’t want that for them. You don’t want that for them, either.
Furniture Friday: Black, White, and Red All Over
This week we’ve decided to start a new column, Furniture Fridays!
Our first installment features South African designer John Vogel’s Mantis Lounger, currently available at West Elm. We’ve paired it with two Textilene Sunsure Fibre Fabric samples from the mid-20th century. These were produced by E. W. Twitchell, Inc at 3rd and Somerset Street in Philadelphia. These fabrics have the best tagline, “The Fabric That Laughs at the Sun.”
Everything good dies here. Even the stars.
It’s long been known that Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis were making plans to record together the year before Hendrix’s death in 1970, but it turns out they were hoping that Paul McCartney would join them on bass. Hendrix, Davis and jazz drummer Tony Williams sent a telegram on Oct. 21, 1969, to the Beatles’ Apple Records, hoping to get McCartney in for a session.
