"I am" - The Griot

Today I went over to my good friend Terika Lewis's Violin class. I had a good time drawing the youngsters learning to play Michael Jackson tunes in string.

Inauguration of Mayor Jean Quan at Oakland's Fox Theater

Inside the Fox Theater in Oakland at the Inauguration of Mayor Jean Quan. Jean is sitting at the center of the table directly behind the speaker.

The inside of the Fox Theater in Oakland. Love the Aztec / Mayan feel of the interior design.
