Don't spend the day doomscrolling, try some art scrolling instead. There is a museum in a small Danish city with an extraordinary collection of bookplates. #art #exlibris #book frederikshavnkunstmuseum.dk/exlibris/

Subtly downgrade a band. The Security Guards. REO Station Wagon. Six Inch Nails. Durian Durian. Mumbling Heads.

When I win the Megamillions I can buy up all the abandoned IOOF lodges I can find. Then I will start a chain of queer bars in rural America called Odd Fellows. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I purposely didn’t buy bread at Trader Joe’s today, with the rapture on Tuesday, I do hate to waste food. 🍞

Today's Lowrider Parade is just another reason why I love San Francisco. #lowrider #cars #art #SanFrancisco

Not many people know that you can grow your own brass bed. #gardening

Because nobody wants a plastic crate that doesn’t work.

So many reasons I am grateful for being a Californian. #vaccine #health

“There is no history of corporate bravery in this country.” 💯

Born 103 years ago today: wondrous operatic Peruvian High Empress of Exotica #YmaSumac (née Zoila Emperatriz Chavarri Castillo, 13 September 1922 - 1 November 2008). All these decades later, her divine superhuman voice still inspires awe! Pic: young Sumac by Peter Stackpole for LIFE magazine, 1950.

Go see Rose B. Simpson's work! #art #deyoung #SanFrancisco youtu.be/47ArhKFglkI?...

Let's end this week with a song. youtu.be/VPf6ITsjsgk?...

The de Young has done a great job. www.kqed.org/arts/1398120...

I thought the USPS's Sponge Bob stamps were a bit silly, and yes, I did buy and use a sheet. But this <insert joke about Swiss cleanliness> is fantastic!

Just getting out the mail….. #mailart #goodmailday #playwithpaper

Sometimes simplest of collages, where just a few found images are put together, turns out the best. I love this piece of mail art received from A. Jacks. #mailart #collage #dada #art

Hard to believe it’s been five years since “orange sky day” in the Bay Area…

Remembering Orange Sky Day - 5 years ago today. #climatechange #wildfire #SanFrancisco

Doctor I trust more than RFK Jr.

Two people I know have Covid. Yesterday I got my seasonal flu and Covid vaccines. I am lucky to live in a state that supports and offers them. If you do not, let your Congresscritters know what you think about that! Especially Floridians! #vaccine #covid #flu #science #mrna #virus #vax #safety

COVID vaccines have saved 2.5 million lives, 90% of them seniors. RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine agenda is a deadly assault on seniors and people with disabilities. He must resign now!

A mail art series I did in 2021, because vaccines keep us safe and healthy. 💉❤️ It is that time of year again and I am grateful to live in a state like California that is not run by science-denying psychopaths. #art #mailart #postal

I do not care who you are or what position you hold. No one bullies our children.

Awesomeness just in time for Claude's birthday! www.calacademy.org/press/releas...

Where is MY parade? #NationalTofuDay #Tofu

Christen Mattix’s Lift Every Voice and Sing (Charcoal and mixed media on hymnals) At the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art

Monday! www.mobilize.us/aflcio/event...

I can't think of any better special exhibit at the SFMOMA in 30+ years. So inspiring — but no potatoes were harmed in my latest series of ATCs with hand-carved, rubber stamps as an homage to Ruth Asawa. #art

Happy National Dog Day! #art #artsky

Protest #Ukrainian egg.

Ukrainian Day in Golden Gate Park 🇺🇦 #SlavaUkraini #SanFrancisco

My newest piece is an homage to coffee culture and cafe goers everywhere! It’s an 18” x 24” print that I’m releasing in a limited edition of 250. There are 90 different figures in the drawing, drinking everything from iced coffee to matcha lattes. This labor of love took about 90 hours to create.

Old maps, postage stamps, scraps of brochures, and suddenly you have a collage of the Pacific Northwest. #art #collage #artsky

Hear me out, if we must have Waymo robocars all over the streets, they all need to look like this. And every citizen will be allowed to carry a glue gun and add any geegaws, tchotchkes or knick knacks they want. #SanFrancisco

Comix Experience is one of the best stores in my neighborhood! #SanFrancisco #LowerHaight #Divisadero #ShopLocal

California might only have 2 senators and 54 electoral votes, but we have 319 Target Stores. FAFO!

When visitors to San Francisco hop off tour their tour bus at the corner of Fell and Pierce Streets to walk up to Alamo Square, these are the posters that will greet them on the wall. I love my City! ❤️🌁 #SanFrancisco #NoKings

Good morning, Copley

Should we call him Mayor Waymo? He did win the clanker vote. #SanFrancisco

What happened to the San Francisco I know and love? The activists have been priced out over the years. The tech kids are only in the streets when they line up for an $80 hipster, dim sum brunch. Alas.

If you’re trying to erase history, you’re on the wrong side of it.

Another in my bookcase collage series. I paint paper, cut it up to resemble books, add a few scraps of packaging, maybe even a pasta box. Add some paper for shelves and then put it back together on a painted wooden board to create a bookcase collage. #art #collage #artsky #queerart

Todd Kurnat has added a great splash of color to the neighborhood. #art #lowerhaight #SanFrancisco #mural
