Dodger Blue

Since tonight marks the beginning of the Los Angeles Dodgers playoff run, I dug up some old in house portraits of the 1982 team, as depicted by artist Nicholas Volpe. These are a few of my favorite players from that year. Similar to a baseball card, each 8.5 x 11 portrait contains the players stats on the reverse. I'll take Dodger Blue over Yves Kein Blue anyday!

Unbe Weavings

Unbe Weavings now up at Gravel and Gold, San Francisco. Gravel and Gold HERE

The white, lonesome walls at the shop are awash with color. Tireless stripey shirt uniform wearer, fellow neighborhood shopkeeper, and friend Rory Rabut has kindly installed a group of gorgeous North American Indian and Central American woven textiles. Each piece in his collection—ten years in the making—was selected for its vibrant colors and bold graphic design. The show does include several collectible Yei rugs and fine saddle blankets, however Rory’s emphasis is on the immediate appeal of the weavings as beautiful objects, regardless of their pedigree.
