Slummer Days

Sometimes when your mind is weary from the daily grind, the best thing to do is to make it more weary with too much sunshine and a cooler full of fun. This was a little 24 hr vacation to Sindey Island with a couple of good friends. Ahhhhh much too short but, oh so sweet.

The Abracadabra Show

Abracadabra is both a local art publication and group art show inspired by the theme of Magic and Metaphysics. It is a celebration of the otherworldly, an embracing of the unexplainable.In succession to the BeCause, the Glue Factory, the Natural Low, the Feast, and the Make, Abracadabra is yet another incantation of Victoria’s young, underground arts community.I was stoked to be included in this years mix of artists.
