Here is the link to the video:

The next show at "On The Corner Music" is this Friday, February 22nd. It is from 7 to 11p.m.

580 E. Campbell ave, Campbell CA.

It is their sixth annual "We Love Music" show.

It is a fun challenge when this show comes around, because the idea is to try to use actyual vinyl in your work. It used to be mostly on record sleeves, but the last two years, i have moved beyond that and incorporated tapes as well. I finished my piece today. Check it out:

It is called "Spin Town" and will be up at the show for about a month. It is for sale for $40 at the shop.

I used velcro to attach all the parts, so whoever ends up with it can actually removed the pieces and play them if they like. well, except the record, but it is pretty scratched up. I lucked out finding that song though. I think it is a perfect fit for the show.

Mushroom Dogs

I have a recipe that has been submitted to the Taps family cookbook. My sister is a paranormal investigator and part of the Taps family. Besides art, I also enjoy cooking and even ghost hunting when I get the chance.

Here is one of my weirder things that actually turned out very good. (Not the recipe in the cook book).

Sauteed Mushroom and celery dogs.

I broiled the hot dogs and lightly toasted the buns.

I sauteed Celery and sliced mushrooms in vegetable oil with a little salt and pepper. I then added the green onions at the end of the saute process and then used it as my toppings. I tried to keep the celery bun length, so you get a slight bite when eating them. This was very delicious and a great experiment trying to amp up the modern hot dog. There were no extra condiments needed.
