for Gene Mendez

Friday March 13, 2009

Today was a very very low building. I had to gaff my swing set. I can't even explain how we set it up. I made these short extensions. I did this act with tricks I have not done in years. I did it in honor of Gene Mendez and his artistic amazing high wire act. I realized that to be an artist you have to push yourself to places that are uncomfortable. You must go into the unknown. Never have a comfort zone. Feel like you are going to puke. Cowgirl up.Today was a diferent kind of hard , it was a challenge. Make it work. Never say die.
