Mickey Free Is A Ballet Star

October 5, 2010
Very overcast this morning. Went home for lunch and as I turned on Old Stage Road a freak hail storm hit. Sounded like baseball bats hitting the roof. Parked in driveway and watched two-foot-high explosions ripping across the pool. It got worse. Ground completely covered in a snowscape white. Peaches freaked out and went to my neighbors house. Went over and got her. She had chocolate milk stains on her upper lip, the little bitch.

Last Friday, another independent bookstore went out of business at Stagecoach Village. Went up to Pages for the wake and bought a bag full of books. One of them was a picture book of that Russian ballet guy (Nureyev?) and I was struck at how he could be a model for Mickey Free. This was inspired by the cover shot:




Nice effects, more to come.
