This is how I prefer to see the world...through rose colored glasses! Well, who wouldn't if it always looked like this? This great big ol' monster is full of great color...lots of saturation and very expressively painted with thick paint. I am in California as I write this. We just got off Venice beach, got some good skating in (I'll upload the pics later) and bought a trinket or 2. One young, scraggly pan-handler held up a sign that said "Why lie? I need $ for weed." In small print it said to give a "tip" if you wanted to take his picture. Well, I took the little beggar's picture and for a tip...I told him to get a job and work hard! My dear little wife said in her best foreign accent and kind voice..."There sure are a lot of vagabonds here. I think I would like this place better if there weren't so many". Well, now she knows what Venice, Ca. is all about. The kids thought the weather, surf and skating were real fine. This picture is being auctioned here.
