The Sciolist: November 2008

That's What I Metaphor

the other day i saw this out of the window from where i work. sunsets and sunrises play a metaphorical role in how i live my life. in all the events in my life from the good, bad, and ugly... i must know that when the sun sets and darkness falls... the sun will always be there to rise again. the new day is my gift to make a difference and the new sun will shine light on my path. it's a cycle that we can take advantage of in trying to stay positive when things don't go as planned. and the fact that sunsets and sunrises happen on a daily basis, i'm easily and happily reminded of this. because one thing is for sure... when it gets cold and dark... we all can easily get lost when there is no light to guide us.

Tattoo's Day
handful of beer and ink.

The Barber
i've became an instant fan of shawn barber since the day me and a friend ran into him on our way back to my truck on a random day after work. i just wanted to share one of his new paintings on his blog (http://sdbarber.blogspot.com/). he's done some of the sickest tattoo portraits in the industry.

so if you like art, tattoos, and seeing kat von d. naked... you need to check out the blog.

as for this one... i'm going to find it, ask how much it is, let them tell me how expensive it is or tell me it's not for sale, and then buy the official copy to hang in my future home.
