Someone make me this clock, or one like it.

I was thinking this morning about analog clocks and how I've always had a hard time reading them at a glance. Am I the only one who has this problem?
I made a quick sketch of a clock to help solve this problem. Using the same components as any old regular analog clock, this "background" makes it easier to glance at the time. Its 11:30(ish)!

One Hundred Dollars

I was super excited to be asked to participate in the One Hundred Dollar show.
Curated by Sergio Barrale, and including a couple of old east coast artist friends like Reid Bingham, Ariana Baret, the only thing that leaves me bummed is that I cant see it in person while it's up in Brooklyn's Littlefield Gallery.
