Todji, you are one with the eternal expression of the undressing of the Universe. Your eyes twinkle a sparkle of life that is unparalled even by the 7 Cosmic Gems hidden on the Shores of Trakis Major. Conception is your alliance and your movement is sweet compliance.
You...are a genius. Never forget the sprockets in your pockets! or your divine role as the channeler of Twizbocks magic Rings!
I love you!!!
one love,
spirit monkey

todd is brilliance, like the bold sun shines
so dependably bright and warm, expansively clear and fresh
a warrior of honesty and integrity
he is the fusion of an all-knowing god and a simple fool
walking his path with a million muses dancing around his head and riding down his spiral hair slides going "weeee!"
through him, bestowing us and the world with all the joyous gigglings that are manifested by his whack

You are one of my favorite artists in Portland...and beyond. I feel honored to feel connected with you in this lifetime, my friend. You are an inspiration and a superfucking talented creator...xo

Todd, it's great to meet and come to know one of my favorite sculptors. For making a Ghandi proliferator out of me, thanks.

Greetings Friends and Family!
I am one week away from wrapping up two new bronze monuments, as well as fiberglass versions for my large scale traveling show. I am very excited about showing this new large work!.
I will have been in Bangkok for one month and I am ready to be done. A good trip overall with some minor to moderate stress.
This production effort is a change in strategy for my business, Basically I’m ordering bulk overseas. Think Walmart meets Todji! hehe
I did have one briefly shocking encounter. I was purchasing a deep fried mackerel from a street vendor when out of the corner of my eye I perceived a big grey hairy something was about to violate my personal space. I jumped back and turned to look at it, but I could not make any sense of the of what I saw. What felt like forever passed before my eye finally understood the form, and I realized that I was standing next to a five foot tall elephant and he reached out his trunk again to tap me on the arm!
I did a double take and started laughing, adrenaline still pumping. The elephant’s escort invited me to feed him. I only had a thirty dollar bill on me so I passed on the offer because I didn’t think he had change. I could see disappointment in the elephants eye as they went on their way.
What did I learn? I learned that In Thailand it’s better to be a working elephant than a fried mackerel.
Much Love, Todji

Not only am a head taller in Bangkok but I also ate fried frogs for dinner!
Okay, at risk of sounding like a brat, I am in Thailand and I want to go home!
Since March Ive been in Scottsdale, Bangkok, San Francisco, Austin, Fort Worth, Austin (with M4th), Houston, New Orleans (Jazz Festival), Houston, Austin, Portland, Breighton Bush, Portland and now freakin Bangkok again, (not to mention layovers in Taipei, Phoenix, Santa Fe, Oakland and Tokyo!)
All for work and just for a few nickles! I signed up for this job cause I thought artist don't work. How wrong I was!!!
I was home for two weeks to see my wisteria canopy bloom, visit with the housemates and friends and now I'm back to the cross-continental commute.
Someone hook me up with a Country Fair job / pass please!
Okay, the reason I'm in Bangkok and ready to go home is: (see photo).
I'm looking forward to getting home mid June and reconnecting with the fam. Mad Love to everyone! XOXOXO -Todji
