so, if you google me, you will get hits.

most are my first gen trolls from the hood. i usually also google mopinko, so i can have a laugh at the trolls.
this gallery, where i was on the board might pop up, mostly in credits for funders.

but i got to chatting w the retired director/founder, and was on the site, and wondered what pics there were there.
hope you enjoy.

sorry if i did. my elbows are too sharp for my own good sometimes.
then again, i occasionally leave a foe bleeding from elbow stabs. i do my best to only use them for good.

I look forward to spending a lot of time looking at the creative content. Are you one of the artists there too, aside from having been on the board?

i was barely shown there.
it's all juried shows, and they are utterly hands-off.

i did get to judge one of the member shows, tho. me, and an amazing woman- joyce owens.

Thanks for the link! I just looked at Joyce Owens’ work and it left me in awe. Very powerful indeed. I have great admiration for artists who explore human history with passion and stark frankness in their depictions of history that molds a people. She clearly depicts American Black history which has its own unique experiences that could only happened here in our rather short history. I look at her work and see both cause and effect, and endurance and life. And our very dark and messed up foundation as a country.

The one that got me in the heart was the Survivor Spirits. It is so powerful that I know I will never forget it. It now lives in my head. I feel lucky to see Joyce Owens’ work. Thank you so much for the link! I have it bookmarked.

it's not a time suck, it's a black hole.
joyce is a delightful person, too. that jury session was something else.

the founder, beate minkovsky, who also has some crazy stuff on there, has a bil who was an early great web designer, and that site was a gift of love. didnt hurt that her sister had the same art brain plus tech chops. great photoshopper by version 3.
