Donations for art sales by Kook



I wanted to blog about my decision on donating to a cause with part of my art earnings which isn't a whole lot every month( around $25-50 to give ), to be honest after month's and month's of contemplating and researching, I felt weary of were to donate that I decided to pay it forward,
I will donate to peoples Kickstarter Fundraisers. Fellow peers that are working hard towards a goal.So this month I have donated to 3.
Each month I will pick a few that I believe in and know the artist/performer will receive directly!
Just a thank you to the universe for having such a blessed life and surroundings!!!

voodoo illustrations by sailorhank


Marie Lavaeu
There once was a guy who said to Marie Lavaeu that my son was in trouble can you help me, she told him “I can”. So Marie went to the church alone and placed spicy peppers in her mouth then put them under the judges chair in court, the son was magically free’d .

Lee Kyle has beautiful innards and visions

-I just framed all of Lee Kyles block art/watercolor and postcards to display in my living room, "who needs a TV when you have art like this"-

I met Lee Kyle in May 2010 at Fair Grinds coffee, he has become a good friend! He has welcomed me into his home ,made me beautiful meals,we've traveled together, both been kissed by Holly Woodlawn,done a handful of art shows together and he really inspires me immensely!

In more ways than one, his sobriety is very inspiring! Though I drink a 3rd of what I did 10 years ago, I still do drink, but he has stayed sober for 2 years. His art is brilliant,seedy and unique just like him!
In the last year and a half or so I have received a postcard nearly every month I always look forward to receiving these gorgeous messages with his artwork on one side and his kind thoughts on the other!

I imagine gardening, doll-making and road trips in our future~

the epic dreams of GUM dolls in New Orleans May 6th at Deity

"Juicy Fruit"


I had a continuous dream the week of February 14,2011. It entailed century old secrets from William Wrigley Jr. founder of the infamous gum corporation.

The dreams lasted for three nights, each one in hearty detail of how Mr.Wrigley titled his empire of chewing gum names.

Juicy Fruit

Double Mint

Big Red

The first night featured his treasure "Juicy Fruit", he informed me that he spent every October in the french quarter and fell head over heels for "Juicy Fruit", she worked in a tea house with the others....Juicy Fruit is what her late night patrons called her,the den was tucked away in a basement around 732 Toulouse .next to the French Opera House.

William and Juicy Fruit had a deep love for one another, yet she had refused to live in Chicago, so they were never able to spend more than a few weeks together.She always told him "I was born here, I'll die here" speaking of the French Quarter, supposedly the farthest she had ever ventured was City Park at the end of the dueling oaks. Juicy Fruit also was in charge at the Tea-House which a very generous lover had given her when he passed away in 1892. Her sister Abbie Reed was furious and they never spoke again.Abbie was told by this lover on Basin street she would inherit the property, yet the paperwork claimed Juicy Fruit as the inheritor of such said property at 732.



Though he was spiritually forced to move on, the "Double-mint Twins" (or the DM Twins)caught his fancy next, those two (Siamese twins) could party for days on end, their hair was always an emerald green which they claimed was from their secret color enhancements found in moss only available in the Louisiana Swamps.The two were always sipping on mint julep's which gave their breath a minty essence, plus they were always in minty colored attire and giggled through any conversation.



Big Red was an infatuation for Mr.Wrigley they would chat for hours and have one Pimms Cup after another. She had claimed to help him with the key elements for his everlasting flavor ingredient in the GUM recipe. She always wore Red and White, to match the interior of the great elliptical auditorium in the French Opera House next door, which she was lucky, one of her admirers "Humphrey" would take Big Red to every opening night and purchase her a new blood red velvet gown adorned with pearls.

Big Red was born a hermaphrodite,her parents were European gypsy's and felt like she was thee golden child. They had come to New Orleans when Big Red was 14, they were both taken by yellow fever in 1905.Big Red was never the same after that.

Underbelly Jewel




Underbelly Jewels

Dolls, Film, and Beyond

By: Miss Oblivious



Where waterfront charm consists of neglected boats shielding their wounds behind broken-off piers and where dust-bowl glamour consists of Victorian pageantry in a cabaret of heartaches, Miss Oblivious has drawn inspiration to create individual hand-stitched dolls of
Seattle-based artists and performers through re-creations from still images captured through static and moving film.



Underbelly Jewels is a collection these unique dolls along with Miss Oblivious-made film-shorts and her Whims of Obscure paintings. Underbelly Jewels will be displayed at the Gainsbourg bar.

Opening night & reception
Friday April 10th 6-9 p.m.
10p.m films and a live performance by local ragtime blues genius Lonesome Shack.



Miss Oblivious, a Seattle-based custom doll-maker, writer, film producer/director, and artist, produces a public-access TV show in which she exhibits short films featuring Seattle talent including members of Circus Contraption and The Youngstown Residence. Miss Oblivious also produces Oblivious Nation, a zine documenting her life world, and messes.
