{Joey Arias as Frankenstien's monster}
Its funny how certain people keep turning up in your life but you don't really meet them until the time is right...
My friend jose moved to SF and when i finally found him {long story} i went out to see him...We saw a lot of sights one of which was TRANNYSHACK where i saw quite a show...two people that stood out were SupposiTori Spelling and Foxi Cotin...Best drag names EVER!!!! I was intrigued because they were pretty amazing performers.... and we even saw Foxi on the bus one day...but we never officially "met.....
...Flash to years later and i am with my boyfriend at the time and we go to an art opening of Walt Cessnas work...here i once again see Krys who is part of the burgeoning "Wolfpak" with Walt and Scooter.......but still haven't met....
....FINALLY in the now i , meet him through a fellow friend Melanie....We meet at Pop Souk and it clicks.....I guess it was finally time......and it all makes so much sense!!!!

Perhaps some of you know Mr Fox's work.....as i did....he takes beautiful photos of beautiful people...mostly men...covered in tattoos or dragged-out to the nines...or in barely anything at all....its natural and raw and just stylized enough to create a fantasy...but so filled with a gritty reality that its hard to turn away....He sees something fantastic amongst the mundane of everyday life...and creates beauty with simple but beautiful sets...and an array of models....

This year he did something near and dear to my heart!!! 31 days of HALLOWEEN!!! He posted a photo..{.or 2 or 3 }, every day of a different horror movie...big names of the genre...the Birds...Exorcist....the Blob...Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street to name just a few...and with models...gogo boys...nightlife luminaries and radical fairies he re-created classic Horror movies in his own vision...from his own personal memories of the films...films that helped shape who he is...like they did to many of us!!!
{Return of the Living Dead}
So if your a horror fan like i am...or just curious...please check out his photos...only a few more days left...and if I know Krys even after just meeting him,...i feel like he has some surprises up his sleeve!!!!
