That is my name!

The restaurant is opening this week!

The wall is installed and fully vertical!

The toilets are flushing! (You only make that mistake once)

Understand how famous I am by clicking the video to life.  Damn I need a haircut.

Here’s a cool little write up on my work from the 1AM Gallery blog.   The February 2010 group  show it references featured several interesting visions of the city and photos are available at Flicker.  Oh right, I mean Flickr.  The internet is no friend of the letter “e.”

Anyway I ended up selling final copies of two beloved pieces.  One to Sacks 5th Avenue, I think.  If that’s the case,  welcome to the feather2pixel family, Sacks!  I hope you understand who you are dealing with.

So instead, I’ll leave you with my five favorite photographs from this weekend.

Earlier this week, the 24th Street Project was finally ready to be installed at the new Local Mission Eatery. So I bought a 6 pack, rallied some friends, and we spent six hours fastening a grid of 350 wood tiles to six enormous slabs of MDX.  Three days later the industrial grade glue still hasn’t come of our hands, but I have a warm feeling from knowing how dedicated my friends are in my time of need.

Thanks to:

• Jim
• Erin
• To-Shi-O
• Cat
• Yaron (owner of Local Mission Eatery)
• Laser

And now you shall witness the proceedings on this third rate video I made.  (Pay attention to the second part of the time lapse and you can see the inimitable Phil–proprietor of the legendary Philz coffee shop two doors down–look on with questionable approval)

You know how Joe is a editor for television in New York?  Well from time to time he surprises his friends with little easter eggs that we would have to be watching the Home and Garden Channel very attentively to notice.  Luckily he occasionally passes them on and for my own selfish reasons, this is my favorite one yet.  If  you are really too bored with life to be reading this lousy website, activate the video.  You will probably see where this is going very quickly but start paying attention at the 13 second mark.
