Worked til close Wednesday and then showered, left for Santa Cruz with Shonna at ~ 11:00pm, made good time. Hung out with the brilliant artist Colin McCaffrey and then trekked over to San Jose to catch the ending of the Anno Domini Gallery's ( www.galleryad.com ) 9th annual Fresh Produce exhibition.





It was unreal, to say the least. Immediately upon arrival I was confronted by a familiar friend of epic proportions gracing the wall of the Anno Domini Gallery, and standing triumphantly [having stood so] since 2008.





Shonna and I met with Cherri Lakey and Brian Eder who run the Anno Domini gallery and they were very cool, passionate, and genuine people. They showed us around the exhibition, let us take a few pictures, and shared some familiar sentiments regarding art of this nature, in a world like this, at a time like now.

It was a beautiful welcome to a wonderful city, and as we left I wondered how soon we'd be back. The north continues to tug like a magnet at the strings that guide my heart. <3

    I've looked through my roll and have no Curro Gomez, and i was rushing as my camera-battery was losing gusto as the moments slipped away.. But i'll keep my eyes peeled for more of his work. His looks interesting!

    And to the card, thank you. They are meant to keep the light, alight.
