The artist himself... he also had a twin brother Malvin, they were born near Chicago in North Harvey.
Flesh, 1928
Cindy A and I went to an exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago years and years ago and it was so awesome. I usually try to buy a print from museums that I visit. So far I have a print from Sydney, Buenos Aires, London, Chicago, NYC and Vancouver. Mr Albright's work is SO, SO detailed and amazing. If you ever get a chance to get super close to one you'd be amazed. I also love the names he gave his paintings..
George McCrae - Rock Your Baby ( Original !!!) 1974
Wow, the fashion is so great.. check towards the end when they zoom in on random people on the street-so great.

Karma?
Shoesday!
Jewels
These medallions are HUGE... I've made a bunch of new pieces but I haven't posted any on my Etsy. I can't seem to get the photos to turnout right. They are too big and you can't seem to view the whole piece. I'm about to give up on this Etsy thing. I don't know how to fix the problem either? Some of these pics are of some pieces I made a long time ago, I was just experimenting with my new camera and a different background.
