11 New 11:11 Character-Juuichi Juuichi & New Country Christmas Song

I recorded a song I dreamt, called “Paycheck Before Christmas”. It’s a little bit country or bluegrass and talks about financial troubles of our times. It is posted on the following links:

I used my cartoon character , Juuichi Juuichi (a.k.a. “11:11”) in the video. My step mom & friends at Amazing Grace in Ballard, Seattle, helped me sing & we recorded it at Audio Logic INC with the fabulous Jay Kenny, who also played fiddle! Thanks everyone involved!

My friend in Baltimore put motion to my cartoon character Juuichi Juuichi! Thanks Elizabeth!

THE ART ANGEL – Look-A-Likes

People say I look like Lauren Graham — I can see a lil’ Lauren & Annette

Look-A-Likes Gilmore Girls — I’m told I look like Lauren

I am consistently being stopped or asked if I’m Lauren Graham or Annette Benning! What a compliment indeed! I tend to get Lauren when I’m heavier in weight and Annette when I’m thinner. Several years ago , when my hair was shorter, a woman asked me for my autograph thinking I was Annette Benning! Sweet!

It would be fun to be either of those fabulous leading ladies…if only for one day! They happen to be 2 of my favorite actresses as well!

100 Strangers Praying Photobooth 1986 Times Square

I found myself praying (really praying!) in a photo booth, in NYC, on Times Square, 1986.
I really loved the pictures of me praying and started a series of self portraits. My plan was to take a praying self portrait everyday…but then…
I got curious about other people…

Do they pray?

What do they pray for?

And how do they look when they pray?

I started approaching strangers everyday for 4 months to pray with me.

These are some of the pictures from that series at these links:
