Hi Sam! Naturally I thought of you and Bret when I posted this, my Bal’more posse. Look, this is an oldie, I just ran across it, it was part of a 2008 Turner show. But I simply could not resist putting it on the blog. Clearer now? Cheers, Debra L.
Wow, I’ve never seen this once on the BMA’s walls. Is it traveling now?
