Degrazia/Interiors & Design/ Art & stuff

Our Nex Gig is May 30th!
2 day fest at yucca tap room 
with rad bands.

Toured The DeGrazia Studio/Home
last week
It was pretty rad..
I loved the matador paintings
and the vibrant ceramics..
Also the large black and white 
gruff photos of him
He was a man of many trades...
a builder/architect, jewelry maker, 
ceramic maker, painter, 
musician, etc...





















the flooring in part of the gallery
was made of petrified cactus 














"On one occasion, DeGrazia was sitting in a restaurant 
and a man walked in and shouted to him from across the room.
 He said," Hey! You DeGrazia?!" 
DeGrazia did not reply, and kept talking with his friend. 
The man, who obviously did not like DeGrazia, 
strode over to DeGrazia's table and interrupted him. 
He said to DeGrazia, "You're that guy who thinks
 you can paint on whatever you want, right?- 
No rules, you just do whatever you want!" 
DeGrazia still did not say anything. 
There was a basket of tortillas on the table, 
so DeGrazia took one out and began to paint it. 
When he finished, he took his brush 
and he autographed the angry man's clean, white shirt. 
Before the man stormed out, cursing at DeGrazia, 
the only thing DeGrazia said to him was,
 "Now I have painted on everything."
