Phish reinvents themselves... again. After another spectacular weekend, full of installation art, 93 degree weather, microbrews galore, ridiculous costumes, and top-notch jams, it'd be hard to ever miss a Phish festival again. The Empire Polo Club in Indio proved to be even more impressive than the last time I was there for Coachella... and Phish's musical costume: The Rolling Stones' Exile On Main Street... what a party!
As far as my octopus-themed Halloween identity... things went well. I am extremely thankful that my incredible students helped me build this elaborate octopus costume, and equally as thankful that I was able to stuff it into my pack and carry it on the plane with me (luckily, I didn't need much else with my California friends bringing the camping gear).
And, thanks to all the kind support in Cali, the OctoFest prints sold out of the festival allotment on Saturday morning (before I even got in costume, unfortunately); I have a limited number left here at my studio in Denver (less than twenty, plus about eight artist proofs)...
I saw a lot of great artwork out there this weekend and wanted to send my appreciation to Isadora, Jerzy, and so many other fantastic artists for doing what they do. I look forward to seeing you all in Miami and hope to have some new art to spread around.
