ETHAN IN END-OF-THE-SUMMER MADRAS...


@ Spank/Envoy.

LEAVE IT TO SPANK ZINE & ENVOY ENTERPRISES...


to pull a good crowd in for their show. Patrick wore a great shape t shirt with some cool things on a chain.

PHILIP'S LEGS...


are about a mile long. He's got a great look and I am feeling the neck chain-gold thing in a big way.

CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO FROM 3SIXTEEN...

When I watched video this I realized I'd never 'seen' myself sketch before. Kinda freaked me out ;)

HANDSTANDS IN CENTRAL PARK...


drawn over a Watteau picture. From a facebook photo via Benjamin Weber.

I THINK THIS GUY'S NAME IS ANDREW...


but, honestly, I was too intimidated and I forgot to ask his name...The level of cool got me kinda flustered.

This was from the store opening at Self Edge on Orchard Street...denim mavens head down there!

MIXED DOUBLES...




I was skeching yesterday and I realized that these guys that hung out together were dressed alike! Which raises the question-are guys dressing for themselves, each other (bromance), the same sex, the opposite sex?

Something to get the mind going on a Monday morning...

THE YOUNG CURATORS, NEW IDEAS II SHOW...





at P.P.O.W. last night had some great work. But what was really on my mind was 'this really is the summer of gingham shirts and cut offs...'
