I'm sure we've got a few closet Martians out there. You know who you are. Last month during the opposition were you standing out in the back garden every night staring up at that bright red dot with something akin to homesickness? Then have I got the t-shirt for you! This new fashion delight from Kim Poor is just the ticket!

Also, Kim's a great guy and has a lot of other fine space art on sale. It's worth a click or two just to see the artwork.

I like it!

I live in Tucson, and have several pieces from Kim's art studio (none of his prints, alas.) I bought one of his "University of Mars" shirts back when I was going to college. Glad to see that it's available again.

Here's the sad news. Kim has a degenerative nerve disease that has progressed to the point that he can no longer paint.

Thanks for reminding me of that shirt, Dale. I think I'll put it up on my site too. Oh, and Christmas fast approaches. Kim has some excellent Christmas cards for sale.

Whoops! I forgot! The first piece I ever bought was Kim's "Jupiter from Io."

Any association with the old L5 headquarters or the Tucson Chapter? I go way back with the L5 crowd...


Posted by Dale Amon at September 27, 2003 10:54 PM

Nope, not a member of the L5 society, I just like the art.
