Michael C Hsiung


I can't get enough of Michael's mermen, serpents, and furry man creatures. 
Looks like he has yet another great piece of art in Neon Heathens show in North Carolina. Opening May 27th
 and take a furry creature,chubby moustached man, or centaur home!

On the confusion and fury of a recently born man-serpent.

Please Sir may I have more @ Public Domain?

Just when I thought my life with coffee was complete along came Public Domain....
Apparently these folks have been behind the scenes  as a wholesaler, roasting coffee for  a very long time and have just gone public. They have some serious passion behind their process.


Yummy Mocha!



 Noah was kind enough to recommend this  Ethiopian  coffee which  I enjoy as I alertly type away

Public Domain is located in downtown 
603 SW Broadway
Portland, OR
Oh and ck out their website for info on cuppings and home brewing demonstrations!
