My better half is off to Vegas for a couple of days, so I made her this love song with the help of my two favorite art pupils, or rather art teachers... or whatever.

Found some random still shots on my camera from the old IT IN space SoHo... my old gallery/painting/t.v. studio. Long story, but it was a fun year if not for Bush starting the fucking war... three years now?, but I digress. Here is the truth as I see it.

Kids rock (When you can give them back to their parents after words), dogs rock, Nick Cave rocks, poetry rocks, painting rocks, rocks rock, cherry blossoms rock hard, but my girl rules and I aint nothin' but a bad seed.
  • I like your visual stuff a whole lot, Alex.

  • Alex Itin plus 3 years ago
    There's the Allan Stone Gallery in N.Y.
    and there's some stuff in Dumbo (where you see me visiting and drinking beer during the Vegas portion) and there is also a full online experience at flickr:

  • Alex Itin plus 3 years ago
    NO HE WON'T and shut yer mouth.

    He might actually know how to make money.

    He tells me, "Watch and learn Uncle Alex, I'm going to sell this painting."

    KIDS

    as for guitar: it was surprisingly cheap.... as it was I had to beg and steal to buy it for her, but it was the one thing she passed in our guitar store window one day and she says:

    "You know me, I like to shop, but stilll.... here's a thing... I don't play guitar and I don't plan to learn, so I think it's wrong to buy it, but if I ever had some serious loose change, I'd like to look at that guitar every day.....

    like art"


    and I says, "Well heavy hinter if it's still there in six months I'll buy it for your birthday....

    and so I did and so I think I'll learn to play "chick guitar" as Jakob called it...(He's the little rock star witht he lay down song"...

    Want to see vid with the daisy PUUUUUUUlease!
  • codesarah 3 years ago
    haha, okay, I'll try posting a vid.

    But like her.. I don't play the guitar.. I tried to learn but it's not working for me. HAHA!! I need some professional help.
  • Alex Itin plus 3 years ago
    my little teacher refuses to take lessons or learn to tune the guitar... like he says in his impromptu song: "Just tun it rock just tune it rong and strum... let's not worry abou it.... but gee uncle alex, if we had an amp I could just rock out."

    so just tune your guitar wrong and adjust everything else accordingly. It's like math... everything is divisible by one.

    Oh, that last bit from Citizen Kane...that is one of the most magnificent bits from that movie, an underrated bit...about longing for things never touched.
