Eugene Koch: Lines Of Sight

If anyone is around Downtown Stonington this Sunday, I suggest you check out my father's solo show at Isalos Fine Art. He has been working like crazy on it for a while now, and it should be pretty awesome.

The opening is from 4 to 7 on Friday, August 21, at Isalo's Fine Art in Downtown Stonington. It's called "Lines Of Sight"


The show will be up from August 21- September 3rd.

Pleasant View Art Gallery

There will be an opening at the Pleasant View Art Gallery on Sunday, August 23 from 3 to 5 pm.

The Pleasant View is a new gallery being opened by my friend Susan Webster at The Kestenbaum Barn in Deer Isle.

I will have art there, and so will Bouthot, Hou, Kestenbaum, Menken, Poland, Saaf, and Webster.

It's gonna be a real relaxed atmosphere, with art and music. If you are in the area then come on by!

roald dahl's ghost story book

I also just read Roald Dahls' Book of Ghost Stories, which I recommend to anyone who love ghost stories. The stories aren't by Roald Dahl, they are picked out by him out of probably 100's of other ghost stories to only 14. Really excellent, scary stuff.

the mysteries of pittsburgh

I just read 'The Mysteries of Pittsburgh' by Michael Chabon. It was just lying around the house, and I like Michael Chabon, so I decided to read it. I gotta say, it was great. I would recommend it to anyone. It might have a had an even deeper significance with me because it's about a college grad in his summer after he graduates and all the crazy stuff that happens to him. It sounds kind lame from that description, but it's really well written, and it's easy to see how the author went on to win the pulitzer prize. The book really has an interesting mix of style and vulnerability.

Oh and I guess there's a movie based on it, but it probably sucks.

grace period

A little ways back I did my degree project for school. It was about my experiences with diabetes (which I have had since I was 13) and was ultimately a very satisfying thing to do. I made one copy of it that went to my professor, and that was it. However, I now have the means to make more copies, and I will be doing this soon. Until then I'll be posting pages from 'grace period' up every once in a while on this blog, amongst other things.
