Again, I rarely post photos, but while cleaning out a closet I found two genius pictures that I thought you might like. The first is one of my top 5 favorite photos of all time. It's of my brother Jon, holding a sign so that the photographer would know where his class' photos started on the roll while developing: The second photo is of my dad and grandad baptising people in the river Jordan sometime in the 80s:
Over the next few weeks, as we build up to the DeerMilk:The Werewolf Youth show, I'm going to be giving you some sneak peeks at what to expect. The first look comes from Atlanta area artist, Jym Davis, who is working on an experimental short film for the show.
We're looking for some help in the DC and Baltimore area.
We now have the posters for the upcoming Werewolf Youth show, and we need some help putting them up all over town. If you would like to volunteer to help put some up on your school campus, in local clubs, etc, please email me asap at tmlowery@gmail.com

Founded in 1998, The DeerMilk Collective is a small group of international artists who work collaboratively on projects in a variety of media. This exhibition will focus on a cast of characters called "The Werewolf Youth," a group of simplified, iconic preteens in feral costume that have been translated by the various members of the collective. Experimental short film, and two-dimensional mixed media works will be featured.

I developed some weird foot problem for two days while we were in California. Rachel said I was having empathy pains for Brandon, who has to have surgery on his foot later this month.
the Deermilk collective's first show is coming up at the end of this month. Artists interested in joining us should check out deermilk.com and email me as soon as possible!
We're back! Rachel and I (and the growing baby wolf that is in Rachel's belly), took the red eye from LA last night and got back this morning at 5 in the a.m. I'll post some journal pages from the trip tomorrow (one of which includes our accidental trip through compton), but for now here are a few artifacts from the trip:
Orange: We stayed in Orange County, and picked some oranges out of our host's parent's neighbor's yard.
Avacado: We didn't stay in Avacado County, but we did pick a ton of avacados out of our host's grandparent's yard.
Airplane sleep mask: I tried using this, but it smelled weird and I couldn't sleep.
Sour candy: I am now officially addicted to Ice Breakers Sours.
Tar pits bubble: The tar pits aren't as active in the winter, but they were still interesting.
$40 in Jack Daniels: The old guy next to us on the plane ride to LA bought at least $40 in Jack Daniels mini bottles, and passed out. Since Rachel's pregnant, we had to wake him up several times so she could get up and walk around.
Sea Hare: Now sea hare! This weird slug thing was in the tide pools at Laguna Beach.
Shell thing: Some germans saw this in my hand and they said, "you found this here?!?" and they seemed so excited that I offered it to them, but they said they had plenty. Then, they found a moving star fish and showed it to us.
Avacado picker: I was a natural. Picking avacados was probably one of my favorite things that we did.
