of course while i was in charlotte for the day that i was there i couldn't resist going out and painting something for fun. i met up with a couple of others guys i know in town that paint and we found a lovely abandoned school just up teh street from the venue where the even was held. inside all the walls were torn apart because apparently some homeless guy wanted to take all the copper pipes from inside the walls to take them to a recycling center for some money. so we decided to paint outside of the place on the rough brick surface. i found a nice 5 gallon bucket of white paint inside so i decided to put it to use and splattered it on the wall a couple of places after i was finished with my piece.

also, i ended up using hte same colors on the piece because i had extra leftover from what i painted for the show.

One time at my old job -- a distribution warehouse for pneumatic factory equipment -- we found 40 lbs. of pristine copper tubing, and some dude there ended up selling it for big bucks. I wanna say it was over 300 bucks for 2 rolls. I felt cheated for not getting any.
