Cincinnati 'sanctuary city'

Last night people cheered chanted and demonstrated as the mayor and other leaders announced that Cincinnati has been declared a santuary city. No city money will be used to hold, detain or report on suspected aliens. I applaud everyone who took a stand for freedom last night.
I know the pussy grabber and his kleptocrat henchmen are hoping for protest fatigue so they can get down to the business of looting the entire world but that isn't going to happen on our watch.
Stay tuned and put a save the date on February 17th.

the matchbox was struck

What a blast Friday night. Thanks to everyone who came out to check out my show and say hi.
Thanks also to Maya, The Ledge Gallery and Your Friends & Neighbors for hosting.
I suffered some crushing self doubt before the opening but everyone seemed to appreciative of the series and the matchboxes I created mostly to amuse myself and to spice up instagrams.
If you couldn't make it Friday, the show will be up through February.
Everything is tiny in Tiny Town.

Cincinnati's Womens March

This is my reason for marching. With gerrymandered districts my voice is not heard. Downtown lumped in with Western Hamilton counties and Warren county. District 1 absolutely does not represent anyone in the city. How do you make your voice heard? Take to the streets.
Plus I'm up for any public display that is a rejection of Russia's pussy grabbing puppet.
And I'm really tired of the GOP's war on my wife and women.

“He’s orange! He’s gross!
He lost the popular vote!”
*sounds better saying it out loud than reading it

An instagram inspired art show

three vices
This story has two parts, maybe three.
You know instagram, you take a picture of what you are up to because you want to or need to share it. But it looks mundane so you are always looking for ways to up the ante.
I posted a couple pictures of cigars back in the day but that was boring even for me. Then I began doing still life with coffee cups and beer or whisky bottles.
Somehow over the years I would accumulate cigars that people had handed off to me, or ones that I've gotten deals on that were more than I'd normally want to pay for a cigar. So I would save them for a special event, but you know how that goes, too much internal dialog. Is this event special enough? What if I smoke this cigar and something even more special happens next week or next month?
I finally decided I would start smoking all those cigars on Sunday and #nocheapcigarsunday was born.
Then posting cigars and beer or what ever got old. About four or so years ago I pasted a found picture on a matchbox, Unique and something no one else had or possibly had seen. After creating a couple matchboxes I starting using photos I had snapped.
Fast forward to Maya's Tiny Town and Ledge Gallery with an audience for tiny format art and a show was born.
A multimedia photo show featuring my collection of matchboxes customized with photos paired with photos of those matchboxes from the #nocheapcigarsunday metaverse.

January 27th 6-9pm at the Ledge Gallery
Located in the back of Your friends and Neighbors
2803 Woodburn Ave.

Cincinnati Travel, Sports & Boat Show

Lets go ahead and get it out of the way up front. Car shows, boat shows or any show really at the end of the day is a fashion show. With that said the Cincinnati Travel, Sports & Boat Show this year could be titled back to the Future. The boats were all 1970's muscle car metal flake while the jet skis were 1990's day glow graphics. Interesting the two groups are taking their cues from two completely different sources. I guess that makes sense if the audience for those products are completely different.
You still have tonight, tomorrow and Sunday to check out all the new products.

And of course the best way to navigate these shows is with cold filtered freedom.

downtown Cincinnati now has a Hardware Store!!

Acme Lock And Hardware opens today bigger and better than ever at 125 East 9th street downtown Cincinnati.
Two floors, 8,000 sq ft this place has just about anything you could need living downtown. A whole floor of hardware, plus paint, home goods including cookware, cleaning supplies. And about anything you could need for your pet, bike, or grilling. Someone could just about fly to Cincinnati, rent an apartment and minus furniture and bedding stock the whole place. If like me you thought Walgreen's has everything, wait until you check out Acme.
And to top all that off, everyone at Acme are upstanding citizens and rehabbed a historic building in a historic district. 125 East 9th street was built in the 1890's and was at one time the Republican Club and had a bowling alley in the basement.
You really need to swing by Acme, grab a cup of coffee at their counter and walk around.
Be warned, there going to be a ton of stuff you'll want to purchase!
