MAGNET 3








Some new art work created last week, It is a series of miniture furniture. titled: Snare Pad-Miniture Furniture.

Based on break-ups gone crazy and nesting. All furniture is wrapped with wire and hemp, to keep out the jealous x-lover , all the while birds are drawn to the "art" to nest and start anew from the chaos.

a Date added!

In addition to the shows/gigs this weekend I have added a Live set(spinning vinyl), Saturday Afternoon at the Store, Jive Refried/San Antonio.
A Tea Dance , from 2pm-5pm.
I will be spinning Disco classics and some other stuff.

d.j refried on the move.


On Valentine's day, I spun @ Franco Mondini Ruiz's art opening at SoHo, an 8-hour gig that keep the guests and art whores grooving, the art had a very 70's feel and the music was it's soundtrack. This weekend I have two bookings back to back, one is a surprise party for the wife
of a very prominent businessman, taking place on the river walk as a private event.
Followed by a mixer on Sunday for SAAF's, Webb party planners/organizers titled: Tea Dance 2pm-7pm., Now this sounds exciting as i have been asked to only play 70's disco music, the more obscure the better.
These are the projects that I look forward to being part of and i will be posting images/blogging about my expierence later.

for....Eva?? or.......

My sketch for Eva Longoria's wedding dress, A bit on the eccentric angle with no armholes. I was asked by Micheal Quintanilla, San Antonio Express-News staff writer to give him my vision for the bride. and this was my Take. The sketch/story appeared in the July 6, 2007 edition of the newspaper, under Designers' Fancies. Interesting is, I was approached last night at Henry De la Paz's Fashion show, by a future bride to be, to create a sketch for her wedding dress. Given my current fascination with deconstructed garments , It may look unwearable and not look like a wedding dress, at all.
