Yes, yes, I know, we have had a delay between drinks but I can explain... basically we are traveling faster than I can post. As I write this I am sitting in a dimly lit (Circa 1699) hotel called The Huntting Inn, which houses the iconic Palm Reasturant, set within the quaint picturesque East Hampton, NY.
You can feel the incredible atmosphere throughout, although I'm guessing its a reasonable tame mid week in the old town, this I gather by the maî·tre d's (oops...of who just walked into the back of a chair, probably because the place is so fashionably dark, LMFO) calm demeanour and relaxed interactions.
It is just short of the busy spring season when the hamlet swells full of New York City types looking to get lose within their exclusive inner circles.
Today we had the incredible opportunity to finally see a heavy weight of mid century architecture "The Phillip Johnson House", in the leafy landscaped sleepy hollow, New Canaan in Connecticut.
And yes it was another long drive that has brought us here, I will follow this letter soon with a post and photos of this amazing house.
What I did want to share with you now was the breathtaking and emotional charged "Now is the Time" Jean-Michel Basquiat exhibition in Toronto Canada...and you wonder why I look so tired in my creative selfies!
I can not describe how significant this exhibition was to not only me, but based on the fact that so many of his most amazing and illusive works were finally brought together under one white ceiling.
Disappointingly photographs were not allowed within the exhibition although true art defies convention, here are a few of his greatest works....
