it kicks ass. all kinds of ass. i love seeing c.'s new work, meeting the other artists he works with, and just generally being there.... his criticism and input of my work also means a lot more to me, because he knows the work that goes into it, and he always says more than, 'that's nice.'... i added some beef to the chili to round it out and give it more meat; i might even throw some rice in there to counteract the beans.
