raymond makes mint tea, fresh from his garden. he mixes it will a blend i make for antebellum.. yum. we leave early to the art fair.
there is a much larger crowd today. people come by all day long. ray wigler comes by to say hello. i don't recognize him because he is not wearing all white. he is on his way to catch the train back to taos. i must check that out sometime. i love train trips, especially if they have a good dining car. russell maynor also comes by. he is someone i met @ antebellum 1 year prior. he came into the gallery with a bag of groceries and stayed all afternoon asking many questions about the gallery. turns out he's based in albq, so i let him know i would be out here. it is nice to see him. he takes allot of interest in raymond's artwork and want to commission a bronze skeleton orgy... that would make the art fair a success for raymond & i.
so @ the end of the fair i have a new acessment of albq, NM.. downtown is made up of people in wheelchairs,
handicapped & amputees,
cholos, cute skater boys, tweekers and arts & craft lovers.
there are many dogs, especially huskies. the main source of revenue is bail bonds, liquor and meth.
despite all this there is some great art being created in albq.NM.
