A poignant photo by my friend Paul Koudounaris of a beloved pet's tombstone. Despite popular belief, the cat's name was *not* Dewey (that was the family's surname). '"He was only a cat' but human enough to to be a great comfort in hours of loneliness and pain." 💔 
Paul is an amazing photographer and storyteller. He's also a great lover of all things feline. He has a book coming out this fall called A CAT'S TALE - all about cats from history. It's the delightful distraction we all need in our lives: amazon.com/Cats-Tale-Jour…
I've been friends with Paul for many years now. He's an eccentric man with a heart of gold. Whenever we meet up, a whimsical journey ensues. This is me in his house in LA a few years back. I felt like Alice dropping through the rabbit hole.
Paul is on my mind today because I had a dream last night that we were on one of those whimsical journeys. At one point, I took off his hat (he's famous for his hats), and his entire head came off. I told him about it this morning and he said: "yeah, that'll do it."
This is a long way of saying: Paul Koudounaris is one of my favorite artists (and people), and he's worth following down those whacky rabbit holes. He's not on Twitter, but you can check out his work on Instagram. A surreal delight: instagram.com/hexenkult/
