COTO coming to BALI soon

Bali is rad…and COTO is radder, so put them together and you get freshly dressed dudes in some snazzy ass threads in the warm tropics…stay tuned.

BALI TY

I made it to Bali, and so far so good. I have surfed Uluwatu a couple times, touched some sharp shallow reef, driven a motorbike everywhere, eaten some funky food, seen monkeys, avoided hookers, sweated like i never thought i could, saw Balinese night club, avoided a terrorist attack, and woken up to do it [...]

Why my shoulder feels like its broken…shot on cellphone

Today was a big festival here in Kamakura, surprised?…at any rate, its basically a fest where guys carry a super heavy shrine and then jump up and down with it, letting it rest on their shoulders, absorbing the pain, and eventually going into a trance, or other state of mind….the fest ends when the men [...]

A Few glimpses…

Before I leave for Bali on Wed, and will inevitably be less active on my site, I will try to post pics of the hung show at CherShore, on Monday.
Here’s some low res, unjustifiable, small glimpses.

Once back from Bali in August, I have two shows, one in Kamakura and one in TOKYO. Posters will [...]

Mind on your nori, and your nori on your mind…

Driving home from Tokyo, (my second time), I still needed assistance from back-seat or co-pilot navigators.
Going through the color coded toll booths at first was sketchy for me, as the “eazy” pass here, is like a 40 mph drive by…

Mori “i said purple rain ty, [...]
