I bet his fur coat keeps him warm at night

I took Isaac with me to the Wild Moccasins, listenlisten, Peter and the Wolf, and Sew What show on Tuesday at ArtStorm. He is quite popular, you know. 

Isaac and I.

Surprise Alpaca

Stumbled upon a surprise alpaca in the basement bathroom of the NYU art building, 12/5/08.

Alpaca Thanksgiving

Location: 65th & Central Park West
And my apartment

Sondre Lerche and Thom Yorke

OK, so I kind of had to cheat, but Thom Yorke WAS in hand when this photo was taken, but unfortunately didn't make the shot. But, I made the effort of schlepping my alpacas to the concert, so I think this is alpaca blog worthy.

Well, not really. But he did pop up onstage during Of Montreal last night...

Boredom and Alpacas

This weekend, Thom and Mariska got cozy with some new friends


And collaborative boredom produced a surrealist alpaca masterpiece

Watch out for this in the new alpaca wing of the Met.

Isaac hangs out with bands

He also has drinking buddies. In this case he found himself hanging out with Houston based folk band News On The March. He was happy to see them on the day they were announced "Best Unsigned Band in Houston" by the Houston Press.

Alpacas fought for the north...

Well, I had to get out of Houston because of that dirty whore called "Ike".  So I made my way over to Alabama and Florida to seek refuge. While staying safe and dry, I took a trip with Isaac to the former fort of Confederate troops during the civil war. The South will never rise again.

Isaac sits atop a now almost destroyed wall.

Yes, a canon. 

He didn't donate any money. He doesn't feel Alabama needs to be preserved.

Hyde Park, Chicago

This is my alpaca, Roald Hoffmann. Charles Darwin (in finger puppet form) treks his way through the terrain of my cluttered desk.


















Interesting fact about alpacas: The alpaca (Vicugna pacos), is classified under the biological family Camelidae along with camels, dromedaries, llamas, vicuñas, and guanacos. Alpacas were assumed to have evolved from llamas, but evidence from alpaca DNA shows that the alpaca actually descended from the vicuña.

Isaac Brock Takes on the Texas Hill Country

This weekend I traveled west into the Texas Hill Country with my trusty alpaca friend to shoot a wedding reception. While killing time I snapped a few shots of Mr. Brock around my friend Lacey's grandparents wonderful home.

Getting in the way during the food prep.

Dalton, unsure of the furry

 stranger.

Looking on as the evening's cake is being prepared.

Isaac looks out into the wonderful Hill Country

Enjoying the simple pleasures in life, like rocking chairs.

Watch out for giant alpacas in the sky.
