Thank you Bruce Mackay. Happy Valentine's Day.

Dear Bruce Mackay

A poem for you - 

This Valentine's Day,
Don't romp in the hay,
rather make your way
to see the work of Bruce Mackay
in the Revolutions Skaaaay -
teboard Shop on Long Street in Cape Town.

Seeing as this is the day of super cheese, I thought I would rhyme. Or at least try to. Sigh...

 



I also like your Munny for the "I Want Your Munny" exhibition, now happening at Toitoy, 49 Kloof Street, Cape Town. You call it "Wing-man." I think that's funny. Because boys can be monkeys.




Thank you Bruce Mackay. And happy Valentine's Day.

Thank you David Maclennan for your pouty-pretty-panda-pausing-pointedly-in-a-pretend-praying-pose


Well, your panda isn't pouting nor praying (though I enjoy the irony of an animal praying even though some people say they don't have immortal souls), but I am in need of the loo and hence the letter "P" is high on my thoughts at the moment. Your panda for the amicollective bare exhibit is pretty. I want to hug him or her (I can't tell – there is no genitalia illustrated).









Thank you David Maclennan, one day I will post more of your pretty things but right now I must run…

Thank you Jordan Metcalf for your kinda-creepy-but-super-cute-anyway illies.


I came across your High-five-and-rocking-the-uber-beard-all-over-his-body guy and I fell in love. He was the backdrop to my desktop for a long time.



And then I came across your Bare for the amicollective exhibition. He makes me want to growl and bash my chest. I'm a girl so this may hurt a little.






And then there was the Iron Fist design. Is it possible that something can make me happy and kinda sad at the same time?

Thank you Jordan Metcalf. I want to be you one day.
