  1. Lloyd – I am trying to get hold of Josh

    My name is Stephanie Hextrum – I lived in Stinson for 12 years

    I want to get purchase one of his ceramic cats as a housewarming gift for my daughter and her husband who just bought a home in Portland

    I have one of his paintings of the Bolinas lagoon – from a show he had at the Parkside in the early 2000’s

    Hoping you can put me in touch with him

    This daughter is also a Cal grad – BA, MA, PhD – I gave her all my other “Surf Bum Art” when I downsized 3 years ago: Llewelyn (2) Knowltie (2) and some others. Llewelyn used to call me the “Patron Saint” along with John Gilbert – good times
