Nite Jewel

The phone rang a few minutes after noon, 'Hey man you sold me that purple board last week and it goes backwards. Can I like, come by and trade it in?' An accomplice to the gentleman who called last week and asked whether 'the keg was going over there' and if not he'd 'bring some muld wine' via canoe but was 'afraid of getting hit by an airplane' and never showed. His cousin Trace came the following week with a friend from across the BQE, Moosie...

For Tearrance and Team Desk Rider

Check it, Alberto from SF and Enrique from NYC are showing some recent creations at SPACE868 in Bolinas, California. Here's what Mr. Cuadros had to say:

The show is called "Exoticism" it's mostly text based illustrations relating to working and wandering people, specificly hobos and gypsies, people that travel, utilizing mainstream society in order for financial survival, but still managing to live outside of it's confines, much like artists, musicians and other intellectuals.
