Another great day.  Today I finished poster 5 of a series of 5.  

Street Poetry

last poster, first layer

This is where the magic happens

Today is a great day.  We get to start moving in to the new darkroom, I just put the final coat on the outside.  There is so much more to do though I feel like we have been through so much and come so far, one small step at a time.  I need to thank Bryan (who is not on FB) and Ruthie (who is also not on FB) as they are the two people who really helped me out by teaching me about flow and construction, the thing they taught me most, "practice is the only education (I will be writing this on the wall, so I can see it every time I am working!)."  I know this sounds like I am getting a grammy award, though I would like also thank Alicia Murray, Dan L Murray, John Rudy and Shannon Michael Good as you are truly inspirations, everything you have been through you still lean forward and live life, life looks so good on you, I love you!  Several years ago I got to see a friend speak, Tony Buba, and one of the audience members asked him, what would be one piece of advice you could give a young filmmaker?  I will always remember what he said, "finish what you start (I will be writing this on the wall too, so I can see it every time I am working!)."  Thank you Tony, thank you family and friends, even though this sounds cheesy, I have been waiting so many years (3 years of dreaming and gathering stuff, a couple of years of planning and a year and a half of construction) to get to this point, I am so grateful and so happy.
