By the time the last weekend of Open Studios came around, I was exhausted. Doing my own open studios the week before had been exhilarating but the drain on my energy was enormous. Still, I was given a chance of a ride to Hunter's Point, thanks to Anna Conti and Sandy Yagi (see BAAQ for Anna's piece on Sandy) and I was not going to pass that up. Most of my friends with cars are artists too and by the time Hunter's Point weekend comes around, we all just want to veg out. Hunter's Point really is inaccessible except by car. One could take the 19 Polk but that's a long, long ride and not something I want to do. It's a shame that the city hasn't provided better public transportation out there. But, all that aside, it was a beautiful day and I was happy to go along for the ride. There wasn't even that much traffic and Sandy was able to get a good parking spade at the side of Building 101. I mention this because when we went it, she immediately saw Richard Bollingbroke's studio which turned out to be one of the highlights of our visit. Read more at:
