Austin James Wills

Austin is on a roll. Two pieces of mail art in one week. That's a personal best by any measure. This one features a ticket stub from Houston's legendary Fitzgeralds and a mural of Lee Quinones on Ludlow Street in the Lower East Side. I have to tell you, Austin, it took me an hour to track that down but I finally found it. This is called Dub 56 (Remix) The Toasters. I'm presuming it was the musical background while you were making it. Thanks, Austin.

Comment by Austin Wills James on February 2, 2012 at 4:02am: Oh, maybe it's the two margaritas from dinner, but I read it as a typo "M.C. Jah". No actually, last Thursday I just dove back into the Mail-Art full tilt. With the gimpy hand I've been mostly doing collages, but I have managed a couple of drawn/painted pieces (at the cost of excrutiating pain to my hand). I think my count of outgoing pieces in the last week is somewhere around 15 or 16. Art is the language that my late Mother & I spoke best through, I'm trying to push through the grief & "She'll never see this..." thoughts.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on February 2, 2012 at 3:56am: I know I asked you. DW's profile pick is Buckethead - played with Guns 'N Roses and Primus? You must know. And, yeah, DW is a real person. I'll explain later...

Comment by De Villo Sloan on February 2, 2012 at 3:54am: He just means Master of Ceremonies James - you know, you're a wizard with the tunes and titles - I'll give you that. Another nice piece, BTW. Have you been storing this stuff up?

Comment by Austin Wills James on February 2, 2012 at 3:21am: No worries, had to get my High School diploma reprinted, because they transposed my first & last names. As for what to look for to hear it...
