    INto YOUR LIFE It Will Creep

    I may not have that right….the 1960’s was a long time ago. The song was “What It’s Worth”, by the Buffalo Springfield. What “It” was, was paranoia. In my rewording…into your life it will creep is………….BOREDOM! A lot less sinister than paranoia, but they both can end up doing strange things. Like questionable art. Once,…

  • As I Said……

    As I Said……

    Chairs represent people, too. The featured painting, of course, is not created by me. If you’re reading my blog, you probably know this work of art is credited to Vincent Van Gogh. It’s a self portrait, illustrated by his chair. I’ve done a few portraits that are chairs: This is my former landlords chair. I…

  • BICYCLES is PEOPLE!

    BICYCLES is PEOPLE!

    As are chairs: But, back to bicycles, and the title of this. Boomers will remember an old movie titled “Soylent Green “. Long story short, in a dystopian world, people are given something to eat, called Soylent Green. As it turns out, its made of recycled human remains. Thus, the cry “Soylent Green is People!”…

  • A WEEK IN THE CLOUD

    A WEEK IN THE CLOUD

    The week between Christmas and New Years is a little surreal to me. It’s a regular week, but it’s not, it’s time in limbo. Real, but out of the ordinary, like files in the Cloud. There have been better holiday weeks, than this in 2020. It’s been a rough year, for everyone. People are looking…

    HOW Did that happen???

    I started to explain how to blog to a friend of mine. I showed her this. When I did, I noticed that I haven’t posted since September 24, 2020. How the hell did that happen? What the hell was I doing all that time. A friend of mine said on his answering machine message, that…

  • Here,and there

    Here,and there

    I’m really enjoying doing these little drawings. For now, at least. Less in the way of time, expense and aggravation. Did I mention aggravation? Yes,I guess I did. What keeps going around in my mind.. Are any of these worthy of the time and effort of large versions? So far, I am going to keep…

    Back to the Subject

    Yup, and the subject was bicycles, not carousel horses. You can probably see the connection, though. Yes, it’s a little teeny girl’s bike. I’m still fishing around for a title, just the way I had to fish around for a mat. Even my in residence color consultant was stumped. So, I chose this, thing the…

  • GoodBYE, Roxyart; Hello Roxyart

    GoodBYE, Roxyart; Hello Roxyart

    This is to let you know, if you’ve been getting here via the URL roxyart.com, it will no longer get you here. Use roxannebaldwin.com, instead. Roxyart.com was my first domain name, which I got in 1998. It has some sentimental value for me, so I hung onto it for a long time. My first website…

  • It’s About Time!

    It’s About Time!

    So, I continued “I Like Trees”, I did another version, which I didn’t like as much. All that work, damn it! And on top of it, I realized, it doesn’t have what it takes, to make the Big Time. So, this, plus the original, small, “I Like Trees”, will be on display at the next…
