Ithaca residents were assured today that spring is finally here, because I wore my rainbow-striped shirt with a rainbow-spattered tie. (The fact that snow is forecast for the weekend in spite of my sartorial proclamation is concerning; have my neckties lost their magickal qualities through neglect?) While most of my "crayon vomit" ties are roughly 35 years old and made of polyester, this is a silk tie by "A. Taghi" of more recent vintage. The only thing I can think of to say about it is, "Whoa."

Spring has sprung

It sure is SPRING. In fact there is only one last pile of snow left under the trees here.
AND.... FYI:

Its a SOLO show of about 25 Tie Paintings.
Great tie, but it shouldn't be limited to just Spring! I just emailed Jaan J. - The Home of Non Silk Cotton Ties to see if they will be coming out with designs like this in the future =)
What a bright tie. Makes a spring time impact. We have some nice silk ties at http:www.tiespecialist.com but nothing as special as that one.
