Hey man, are you new to the 614?
As in import from NYC? I was there in December and think I still prefer other places.
I am actually in the 614 now as well.
Needless to say I dig your work.
Your ideas regarding mark making parallel mine in a lot of ways, in that I believe it to be the birthright of all humanity, not just a "learned elite" or some such nonsense. Though I am also not an avid subscriber to a purist approach of technique, believing rather that, every tool and any method preexisting within the bank of acquired human knowledge is open to those who will allow themselves to inherit it.
We'll have to chat more.
