UPCOMING ART SALES!

It's been a great summer so far, even though it's not technically summer yet! Here are some places I know I will be coming up, and will probably add a couple more before Labor Day too!

I am traveling back today from wandering the Southwest. From Monument Valley to Death Valley. White Pocket to White Sands. So many pictures I want to share!

I'll start with the last one I took. Near Carrizozo, NM

I was never a Kiss guy, but one of the very first few concerts I was able to take pictues at was the Matter benefit in 2017.

Ace Frehley played a few songs with the Gene Simmons band, and it was one of the last time they played together. I felt luck to get this photo

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.
