Alan Ebnother in front of his studio in Stanley, New Mexico.

Alan Ebonether a painter living in New Mexico came through Phoenix to pick up Jutta who is flying into Phoenix. He came a bit early. We took him to a Sushi restaurant and we had fun chatting about everything.

They will drive to L.A and then continue to SF where Alan is showing his works at the gallery.
We’ve been FB friends and this is the first time we met.

Alan attacked the sushi systematically one by one and created this monolithic tower of emptied plates. We ate tuna, tamago, shrimp, squid, conch, California rolls, dragon rolls, tempura sushi, hamachi, salmon and eel. We drank many cups of green tea and ate ginger to detox. The best part was our conversation and this is the first time I ate sushi without paying much attention to the food.

No this is not a Wasabi painting nor did he grind green tea to make this color.
