Sam "Wordy" Winston

Recently I went on a eco-home tour in the Los Feliz area with an awesome companion. It included a house with a roof garden and a rented crane that would take interested people up to eye-roof-level to check it out. The line was too long, so we didn't do that, but it was a neat option.

Also in this house, which has nothing to do with eco-anything, was a framed print that looked like this:

Maybe you can't really tell here, but it was/is awesome. It's a story, and each word of the story includes a definition of that word! Said companion and I wrote down the artist's info because we were so excited about this work of art that played with our love of words. We went to the internet and found it. Delight! Then we found out that it costs $700. Dismay! It's a limited edition, and understandable, but $700 sounds like a heckuva lot of cash right now. Right?

Maybe one day. And maybe $700 sounds doable to you, in which case you can go to Sam Winston's website and buy really pretty, smart art for the wordy wordsmith in you.
