News-Journal Center,Daytona Beach

What an addition to Daytona Beach, the art center.
I am so pleased to have three of my paintings hanging in the lobby, "A Fathers Blues" which is 5 feet x 6 feet, "Another Whatever" and "Looking For The Imposable, which are 3Feet x 5feet.
I would like to thank my Great niece Lise, and she is great, for the introductions, of Julie, Laura, Chad who where instrumental in the installation of these paintings, also Kyle who without they may not have gotten on the walls.

the Coffee Plantation

The Coffee Plantation, a funky well run Internet Cafe / Coffee House owned by Diane and Theo.
Two too cool people, who just have too much fun, serving the greatest hospitality on the island as well as great food and gifts and of course, the best coffee this side of Amsterdam.
Always a dozen people you know in this place , artist and writers abound, enlightening to say the least, great gifts as well as a great selection of my art, be there or be square.

the Grand Cafe

The Grand Cafeis a fine dining establishment, where my grand pal Paul Menta is the chef.
The connection made it a perfect place to have an art exhibit.
Maria the owner and best hostess on the island has allowed me to use her cafe as a show spot for about forty of my paintings. When you are visiting the cafe make sure to enjoy the hospitality of Eric, bartender extraordinaire, or check out the delicate cuisine of Paul and his excellent kitchen staff.
P.S. Treat yourself to being treated the way you should be by this wonderful staff at the Grand Cafe.

Home sweet Home...

A little of the hood where I hang my hat, when in Key West.
P Menta's house where ya see all my paintings, Shel Silversteins house where you may see my van.
It's an old big conch house in its original shape before any renovator got a hold of it.
It's a block away from the famous Key West restaurants Michaels for steaks and Mangia Mangia for there homemade pasta.

Blue Heaven
