Art Modeling to Classic Rock

Being a model for life drawing classes is not particularly exciting; if anything, it is a testament to endurance, among other things.

While standing naked in front of a group of strangers you drop certain pretexts of perfection and hope to hell the students overlook the flaws you do worry about and really focus on muscle groups and mathematics of space and balance.

There is no glamour, no image or fantasy to project, and no way to hide a single thing as you would on a stage.

It is just you, simplified and straight forward.

Often the instructor might put on some music with which to create a relaxing mood for all involved.

Last week was my first week at Cal State for a class of beginners of varying age groups.

In limbo , but in this particular instance ,the wait is moving faster than I would like.

I never said it was a vacation....

It's all the heavy lifting and grunt work of the mind, not having to be onstage , but fingers working to the bone behind the scenes.

I prefer the vacation at this time.

There are no vacations.

Even my "time off " is work.

No wasted scraps left on the plate.

I don't know how "the Stars " do it.

They work on a zillion projects, get photographed, talk about what reading material is on the bedside table, get married and divorced and fall in love again ,and are seen shopping at the most exclusive boutiques while on vacation....

Dandy

The opening of Dandy at Safari Sams was a big success!

The turnout was great , the guests pulled out all the stops in dressing the part , and the whole thing went off virtually without a hitch!

The show was stunning ,and the compliments from guests were very inspiring!

This makes me very , very happy!

It also means I have no escape for quite some time ,and most definitely need help to pick up the slack ,it's alot of work.

The next one hopfully will be even better , who knows .....

As of about this time....

Tonight , the play opens.It is NOT at all together ! I really hope it is not a disaster! It is terribly long,and so many rehearsals have happened without the entire cast being present.

Anyway ,I am fine with my own work in it thus far.....

I have a Burlesque gig this Thursday at El Cid with Bleu Dahlia Burlesque. Haven't seen em yet , hope it's a goodie.

In the works is my new club nite called Dandy .

The name explains itself. Date has not been solidified,but is slated for May 2006.

Am trying to figure out where to fit the Zodiac Lounge into the mix.

Just got word our European tour will not be happening , which is sad ,as it wouldv'e included all cities of my personal interest,however we may still do Paris in July.
