I made a video with Tim Sullivan today at 9:30 in the morning…great way to start the day, but I had work from 11:00-7:30. Very stressful as usual.
Chatted with the TIzz online, glad she’s doing ok…back to the states for her soon. I wish I could have just go to NY and chill for a bit see AM’s Graduation (congrats today kid) and hang out with the folks at CU and KT, maybe the beach on the Long Island…and some real bagels…alas…SF Summers (chilly and gray today)…
No days off till Tuesday…gotta make it, and then a meeting with Comet, and *(hopefully)* the job at SF Ballet…

Pete Ippel, the son of a dancer and a musician, was born in Oak Park, Illinois and has been surrounded by the arts since birth. He moved to Morris, Illinois in 1989 and started to participate in athletics rather than dance. After high school, Pete attended Cornell University where he received a BA in psychology and a BFA in photo / digital art making. He continued to follow his sporting dreams in the high jump, which culminated in a school record leap of 7 feet 1/2 inch in 2001.
In May 2004 he attained an MFA degree in the New Genres department of the San Francisco Art Institute. Presently Pete is a practicing artist whose work is in numerous private collections and has been exhibited in New York, California, and internationally.
Mr. Ippel resides in Working Artists Ventura, a sustainable artist community in southern California. In addition, he teaches art, is a web developer, an active blogger, and still high jumps from time to time.
As a passionate problem solver and a pragmatic optimist, Pete’s art and his life are full of exciting challenges.
