To Do List (Enrich your life)!!!!!!!!!!!
Every one should take time out and explore all things fly
Here are a few things I think you should look into.
check out the photogrpher James VanDerZee photos his images are just Divine. I was cleaning up my art space and I came across some post card books. I've had these books since 1999. I love post cards and yes I collect them. These are books that have 30 or more post cards in it of what ever the subject, it could be cats, dogs, or famous photographers and you can tear out the post cards and mail them out to who ever.
One book I know about is The James vanderzee studio.Published March 2004
Gordon Parks recent publication- A Hungry Heart: A Memoir and Eyes with winged Thoughts: Poetry & Images by Gordon parks. I am so sad this versatile Artist is not with us any more I had the chance to go and see him again (I have a photo I took of him at a gallery in Manhattan in 1999 & I have the negative to prove it lol) in Harlem for free, to celebrate his achievements and this book. I am happy I had the chance to take his photo.
Here are a few Art galleries you should check out when time allows,
-The Rush arts gallery located 526 West 26th street Suite 311, New York the number (212)691-9552 web site www.rushartsgallery.org This building 526 has a ton of Art gallerys in it, when you go in, there will be a big sign that has information on the other galleries that are in the building. oh and this place is a long walk so put on your walking shoes, it is well worth it Summer is here enjoy!!
Leica Gallery 670 Broadway New York this is where I took Gordons picture. The number is (212)777-3051 There are also other galleries in this building and area. The N and R train drop you right there the stop would be Canal street. I would not recommend driving it is HELL lol

There is also a School (I was an intern yes such a wonderful experince) that is across from the gallery go to www.icp.org for more info because I will be writing for ever about these two places.

SoHo Photo Gallery 15 White Street New York This place has work from amateurs and professional photographers it is real nice after School I had a lot of time on my hands I was anti social with my peers if you were not about anything I did not want to speak to ya
I was 16 and 17 going to art gallerys. I loved everything about culture,Art, I remeber being at the West Indian parade and I saw so many beautiful people in one place I was in awe! I was smiling so hard my cheeks hurt I had to take it down a notch. I will always be grateful to my parents for exposing me to all things that make the world so wonderful
