Ferrets Don't get no Respect

I finished another exotic pet for my upcoming series, "say hello to my little friends," which will be on display through April at Cafe Estelle. Ferrets may smell a bit like poo, but I think they are just darling.

There's something else that is non-critter related that I'd like to mention. For all of you NYC folk, I urge you to check out my brother's play, Welcome to Nowhere at P.S. 122 (150 First Avenue) through January 13th. After a sold-out run in February '08, this will be the last performance in NYC before they head off to France, Canada and Austria for upcoming Temporary Distortion projects.

A performance still from Welcome to Nowhere (bullet hole road)...part road movie, part fractured memory, part love story. A meditation on the violence, sexuality and madness found at the heart of the American Road Movie.

Ferret smell was the reason I didn't buy a house I was looking at, but cute ferret art is more than acceptable to buy! Adorable!

thanks gals! ferrets get a bad rep, but they are pretty harmless, apart from the stinky factor.
