CocoRosie - Lemonade

Listen to CocoRosie's "Lemonade"...


It was Cinco de Mayo
Pillow case on his head
No more breathing time
An ambulance sped
It sped round every corner
Calling out his name

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window
Sat and watched in the summer corn row
Ate icecream in a desert dream
Got love in father seeing you
Too hot inside to hot outside
Lazy days when you said just go for a ride
We'll sail on Spirit Lake,
Me, my pappy, and his lemonade

Tim and tina were my parents' names
They got engaged they were inflamed
Seduced by the lie of butterflies
How they shimmer, how they glimmer
Those butterflies

We seven kids, we almost died
Nearly put to death
But lightning strike
Instead there was hot pink
Flashes in the sky
We climb the rocks in snowing rain
In search of magic power

To heal our mother's pain

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window
Sat and watched in the summer corn row
Ate icecream in a desert dream
Got love in father seeing you
Too hot inside to hot outside
Lazy days when you said just go for a ride
We'll sail on Spirit Lake,
Me, my pappy, and his lemonade

Naughty Gras Show!

So I took a trip to St. Louis (apparently the murder capital of the country) for my first show out of KC. The show was called "Naughty Gras", an erotica based art show. I had a blast while I was out there...but enough chatter here are some pics.....


Probably the sickest shit I've seen in a very long time... someone has put me to shame.






Watercolor vag... put that shit in a coffee shop.









I enjoy watching people look at my work.
Like someone once said..."its like watching yourself masturbate"


(top) "Dance of the Womb"
(bottom) "Fire In the Ocean"


Robert Tapley Bustamante, probably one of the coolest artist in the midwest and a good friend.
Check him out: http://www.visualsoul.com/


Betsy Barrett Hails


Killa City artist represent!


I took this pic at some crazy hick ass gas station...

It was a crazy good show, a shit ton of people and hey I even saw my first burlesque show!
I hope you enjoyed the pics.

So I recently designed some headers for presentmagazine.com and it was a delight to be able to create somthing for Pam and Pete who run Present Magazine. They are both super sweet and super supportave of me and other local Kansas City artist. I'd recomend checking them out.
Pam also wrote this lovely article about me, shes a doll. You can read it here.

Its also a little bizzare to see my work on a website... Im still waiting to wake up. Haha! Thers is a unique illustration that goes with every header for each section of the site.
Well enough of my chatter go check them out.
