Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for January 31, 2019

The question is, available for what?

She’s pleased because she’s hoping to get it the %)@& off her lawn.

I thought it was available as an apartment to rent. You have to get the paint cans out before you show the place, Ted.

Ted and JVA both have problems with drawing spirals at times. But the lightning bolt is spot on!

I hope it completes a set for someone. Stand back, Marcie. You could be trampled in the rush.

I dunno, it seems kind of bland. Do you think we could get Ted to jazz it up a bit?

She should probably sleep on it for a year or two before buying it. If it’s still available, she’ll be able to buy it dirt cheap.

I dunno… I kinda think Marcie is an admirer and a customer.

She admires Ted’s rambunctious spirit, and his creativity…

and let’s face it…. his twinkly blue eyes….

and he still has almost all of his hair and most of his teeth.

She has his “Winter Storm” alongside the garage.

She’d love to use “Spring Storm with Lightning” as a backdrop for the patio.

And she thinks maybe if she buys it, she’ll feel brave enough to ask him to tea.

It’s really out there.

Tracey Emin would be jealous.

Ted’s latest work is available … for the trash pickup tomorrow morning!

The LA Times prints this in black and white, sure ruins this strip…

It could use some Neon.

Ted is clever. The art is eye candy……look at the sign……she’s available.

Ted, however, is not available…

That paint can is about to drain into the sewer. Where.. are the Ballard St environmentalists.

Marcie thinks it’ll be just perfect… to scare all those crows out of her tree. And speaking of out of her tree…

Art, huh?

If that was in a gallery in New York, the glitterati would be swooning over it!

She’s hoping it will sell in a flash.

Better make an offer fast, Marcie—the Tate Modern’s already made a bid.

How much just for the floodlight?

“How much to take it away?”

“One hundred dollars.”

“Okay. You have a deal”

“Here’s your $100.”

Wait ’til she sees the other side!

I am so done with winter. I just wish it was done with me.

reminds me a little of Elizabeth Murray – I kinda like it :)

I just went to a Faye Jones exhibit at a gallery today. Everything already sold. She intrigues me because I cannot figure out why I am drawn to her strange images. Here are some, or just google Faye Jones paintings.

Interesting. She must have some great dreams. But…I think you have to win the prize for the longest URL’s that I’ve ever seen. Are you sure those don’t include code for something else as well? {^¿^}
