    A little bit of this, a little bit of that

    It looks as if my subject matter in Danbury, Connecticut is going the same way as in Sunnyside, Queens.  Bits and pieces of the neighborhood, put together in multiple ways…so, I’m starting… A little bit of this: A little bit of that….

    Originality is for nerds

    In my own backyard…Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. When I was a teenager, another student asked me, “Why do you always draw trees?” I like trees, and I still do. Not to mention, there are a lot of them So,shoot me. I may draw the same subject over and over. If that’s good enough…

    Welcome!

    Whoop,there it is Sometimes, I think an alter ego sneaks into my pencil box. I find I do something that doesn’t resemble the rest of my at all. Channeling maybe? I try not to think much about it. Anyway I don’t know how well this drawing shows up, so here it is again It reminds…

    Taking a second look
