Happy to be back on my bike
Picture I took of the moon from my patio. And a pic after hanging the macrame planters I made today. This sunset lighting is really a whole vibe.
My favorite season is coming to an end. Taking full advantage of these beautiful 70* weekends.
One day soon I’ll have my own mural in the city. (I have one that I was commissioned to do, but it’s not my concept, style, design, lol)

@akula_band crushing it. #asseenincolumbus #needsmorepancake (at Spacebar)
I voted this morning and you should too. A young woman in front of me was voting for the first time. She got an extra sticker for her scrapbook. Another lady, a couple decades older than me, broke down in tears of joy at how many people were in line to vote. Then she got busted for trying to skip the line. No cuts lady.

Just dropped Daisyfuentes off at @cbwgrandviewheights for summer camp while I’m away. First time in almost ten years she’s being boarded. Seriously feel like a mom after sending her kid to the first day of school. Definitely gave the staff too much information about her idiosyncrasies and feeling pretty emotional about it. I know she’ll be fine but still nervous and worried but SHE WILL BE FINE

Heading to Comfest for the afternoon. Gonna be camped out at the Off Ramp Stage for most of the day probably eating fried things. Say hi if you see me. I’ll be the guy with food in my beard.

Getting my ugly house painted. Now the outside will match the inside. One step closer to inviting people over again.
Also @instagram has not bothered with any of the messages I’ve sent for months about not being able to geotag my house location, House of Daisyfuentes.

Doing the Art Thing, Again…
Last night’s opening of Gabinetto Segreto at the FANTABULOUS Vanderelli Room in Columbus, OH., was AWESOME! It was so great to participate in such a beautifully body positive environment. The art was top notch and wonderfully cheeky! The performances, the music! AHH! SO GOOD.
If you are near or in or adjacent to CBUS – Go see it!
If you missed the opening, you can always check the website and swing by or come to the closing reception on August 31st, 7-10.
This show was a bit braver than I’ve been since transitioning. I’ve made a commitment to be visible and to fully embrace authenticity as a life path… The paintings were typical of what I usually show, but the sculptural piece, “Trigger Warning,” was very much outside my comfort zone. That USUALLy means it’s important, and that I need to do the thing. That said, I’m glad I was able to work through my personal discomfort to make the statement.
In essence, “Trigger Warning” is a comment on how people obsess over trans people’s genitals, and how we are fetishized, targeted, and otherwise singled out, and “othered.”
The “Guy Parts” were cast of me within a week of surgery, so showing them was also a type of eulogy for the boy. To that point, I now feel some good closure with my old life/body as I step ever forward into my truth.
