Meet Kyle and Esin. Kyle is a hairstylist at the salon right behind that public mural. He’s super nice and I’ve seen him twice this past weekend. Esin (pictured below) is originally from Istanbul and has been living in Midtown Atlanta — and seeing its many changes — for more than twenty years. I loved…

Caution: don’t talk to strangers
So I’m working on my next guerrilla art exhibit (yes, I know; it’s been awhile). Titled “Caution: Don’t Talk to Strangers” (meant tongue-in-cheek, of course), it will feature selections from my Today’s Nice Stranger street portrait collection, exhibited in a cocktail-party configuration in the wild (which passersby will be encouraged to rearrange). And, yes, I’m…
Thistle fluff
I can’t seem to stop visiting the thistle fluff in a magic thistle meadow I discovered over a year ago. A poem may be coming . . . If interested, six of my poems are in my book, Traveling at the Speed of Bike*. Today is the last day to get it for just 99…
Nervous
I’m about to enter The Fence photography exhibit (yet again — I keep trying!), and the photos I’ve selected to enter make me nervous, for reasons I’m not ready to reveal to you. In fact, a lot of my art (both photography and writing) makes me nervous, and that’s actually a good thing. That’s when…

Windows
I installed my latest exhibit at Gallery 26 this week. It’s called Windows. I have much to say about it, and why I chose the photos I did. But I won’t. I’d rather you interpret it however you want. There’s one photo I wanted to include but didn’t, because it’s vulgar. But I may show…
The white dress
Cast-off detritus from a night where good turned bad, perhaps, The White Dress lay on a pile of wood chips in an abandoned urban garden until I found it accidentally. I carried its unknown story around the city while Traveling at the Speed of Bike and tossed it recklessly into existing unloved tableaus of reality….
Art
This is a quick collage of my solo art exhibits to date (plus I’ve been part of a few group shows). I’ve just released my 2017/2018 schedule as part of 7 MPH. Now that Traveling at the Speed of Bike is published, it feels good to get back to my art.
