Thee good'ol Alum Creek Damn Spillway, one of the favorite spots of my son and I to do some fishing and exploring. We have caught a few little things, but I have heard tales of big things that lurk below the depths, but we have not caught any of these. We have seen photos, had big aggressive strikes, and have spotted remains of large fish, but we always end up with an empty stringer...fisherman's luck I suppose, good times without the hassle of cleaning fish!<b> </b></div>

Charlie Feathers gave Elvis a run for his money when it came to rockin' the Sun Records styled boogie. Feathers was much more country and honky tonk in the long run. He was taught guitar, by the guy I would want to teach me guitar...Junior Kimbrough, <b> </b>one of my favorite blues players. I finally got to hear some recordings of the two together...real nice!</div>

A fun piece inspired by Hank Ray and Raymen's <i>Hillbilly Werewolf<b> </b><b> </b></i>song. Drawing monsters was the thing that got me into art in the first place so long ago.

Margaret Kilgallen was a force of nature. She was a mother, a wife, an amazing artist, and superhero taken way too soon from this planet. This is a teeny tiny painting, 3.5" x 4", for a show about the male perspective on feminism...I don't know if I hit the mark, but I have waited to pay tribute to Margaret for a long time now. Long live Matokie Slaughter!!!<br />

Howlin' Wolf...what can be said that hasn't a million times over. The dude was a bad-ass, a true originator, imitated by many! A solid line can be traced from Chester to Captain Beefheart, to Tom Waits, to Clutch, to Man Man...and honestly countless others in between all those favorites of mine. Man o man, his vocal styling is downright deadly! I love it. One of his albums was one of the first I ever bought in Columbus, when I first moved here in '98.</div>

Furry Lewis is one of my all time favorite blues cats. His versions of John Henry and Casey Jones are nothing short of amazing.<b> </b>He has a very fun and laid back vocal delivery and plays a mean as has hell slide. Furry was one of the Memphis blues scene masters, if not thee master. He made some sweet recordings in the 20's, became a street sweeper in during the depression and was "discovered" again during the folk boom of the late 50's and enjoyed a solid recording career til his death. He just looks like a fun, friendly, wiley ol' cuss.<br />

Little Laura Dukes was a huge presence on many a stage and a recording date on Beale Street during Beale Street's heyday, when the likes of Gus Cannon, Jack Kelley, and Will Batts ruled the town. Standing 4' 9", she was the "utility" string player, and she loved the uke. She was affectionately called "Little Bit" by her peers.</div>
