Visit Asheville.

While it’s fun to have the place to ourselves it’s also dystopian and weird.

Come visit. It’s fine, really. The lower RAD isn’t back in swing yet but there are over 300 artists in the upper RAD. Downtown is fully open as well as Biltmore.

We need you to come back.

Rankin Ave Garage.

Meet me at the coffee shop
We can dance like Iggy Pop
Another go In the parking lot.

I couldn’t come up with a parking lot/garage phrase off the top of my head so I checked out the internet and discovered that a whole lot of s**t kicking artists use the term parking lot and more than one used it in conjunction with beer drinking and generally having a good time. Taylor Swift is also seems to be fond of the term in a more romantic way. Neil Young also uses it a time or two. There is a definitive “Americana” feel to it.
I settled on a Red Hot Chili Peppers lyric which mentions a coffee shop, the song title is in fact Coffee Shop, and Iggy Pop. Both iconic American symbols. I worked in coffee shops for 10 years in the 90s/early 2000s. It was a great time, just before the beginning of the absolute strangulation of technology on the general masses.
Creating Art pulls this thread. When you begin to create something it begins from a spark, a simple idea or concept but being with it for a while always brings up a deeper personal meaning. I see that alot of what I do is a part of my healing, my shadow work to use an overused term, there’s a part of me in every image I create because I am drawn to it subconsciously.
Also if you like country music that’s great. The term S**t Kicker just rolls off the tongue nicely.

Perhaps I’m in my Rainbow era.

This hair is like 10 years old. It’s the end of my longest dreadlock. If this hair could talk…it’s a time capsule, like pets. It represents a time in my life. When I had dreadlocks.
I am a re-inventor.
I do it every several years.
Particularly after some major life event.
When my dad died I kept cutting my hair shorter and shorter. There’s a psychology to it. I think it’s an effort to run away from yourself, running from what is making you uncomfortable. Grief.
I’m pretty uncomfortable. I could potentially do something drastic.

Also I’m sitting in an empty metal smithing studio waiting for the internet guy so I may be overthinking this.
