  • Totally clueless in New York City

    So, I’m working on “Making Peace with January”.  Repetitive work again, therefore, I must take it in small bits because 1.  It’s driving me nuts 2.  I have no idea where I’m going with this.  Did I mention that it’s driving me nuts? I’ve been having a string of nights when I can’t sleep.  I…

  • I have absolutely nothing to show you….but……

    I’m working on “Making Peace with January”, and so far, it’s very pale…it would not show up very well.  I’m doing glazes with the colored pencil, building up to what I call a Pisces Gray, made up of a lot of colors, but the eye blends them into gray.  It’s a livelier gray than just…

  • TGIM

    Thank God it’s Monday.  I know that may not be popular among people who work Monday through Friday, but I have worked all weekend.  I’m off tomorrow and Wednesday.  So, I’m being contrary and what else is new? I didn’t get much time to do artwork….but I am working on Making Peace with January.  It…

  • Another Wip…………and I LOVE computers <3 <3 <3

    Yes, computers are awesome…but I’ll get back to that in a minute. It occurs to me that I have done many drawings (including the one I’m working on now) of the sycamore tree out front.  I have however, never posted a photo of it, so you can see it’s beauty for real…so, here’s the view…

  • December Blues

    I guess the title of this should be “Making Peace with December”, perhaps I should carry on that theme. But in other news, I actually spent real money promoting my page on Facebook. I was skeptical since I tried Google Adwords, and all that happened is I lost a lot of money.  But this Facebook…
