My Birthday Treasure

A ways back my bf and I went into the Family Bookstore to purchase some tickets to a Black Dice/Wolf Eyes show.While we were there I fully fell in Love with there handmade Resin Jewelery.They vary in sizes and price,some small rings some Larger pendants,The one I really wanted was medium in size but still not inexpensive.
So sadly I couldn't purchase it.
July 1st two days before my actual Birthday my bf just couldn't wait any longer and forced me to open my gift from him.
He had bought me the one Resin necklace that I had totally fell in love with those few months ago.!
Such a thoughtful surprise. Thank You Michael

Jacob Ciocci is a founding member of the east coast art collective Paper Rad. His work is concerned with the relationships between popular culture, technology and notions of transcendence. In his paintings, comics, performances, net art and videos, contemporary and recently forgotten cultural symbols confront one another inside a frenzied cartoon universe that is simultaneously celebratory and critical.

David Wightman lives in San Diego, California where he is a PhD candidate in music composition at UCSD. There he teaches a course on the music, history and culture of Heavy Metal.
