  • Ccchhhhanges

    I’ve been absent recently because I’ve made some major life changes. In short, I left the man with whom I’d been living. While I.wait for my new place to be ready, I’ve been staying with friends. They have a lot of my old work, so let’s take a walk down memory lane. Pardon the highlights.…

  • As Monty Python would say…..

    Now for something completely different… I’m getting ready for “Pony Rides for a Purpose”, and so is a friend.  My good friend will be trying out a walk-around puppet stage.  And I give you three guesses as to who painted the scenery for it.    You only needed one?  Wow! So,  here it is.  The light…

  • Time to Crawl Back into the Hole…

    Finished.  Well before the deadline.  Now I have some time between this and the canvas for Aidan has a Posse, to do something for myself.  The idea of a singer which appealed to me originally, is not clicking, now.  Kwan Yin?   Maybe….. Anyway, the finish of “Winged Foal” for Pony Rides for a Purpose.

  • Just Another Block in the Wall

    My apologies to Pink Flloyd. Artist block is a real thing that happens every so often.  I’ve been asked before how I get through it.  I’ve shown you a couple of the abstracts  I did to loosen up, and that’s one way I deal with it. Another is just to draw anything, it doesn’t matter. …

  • No Time like the Present

    I think I’ve accomplished enough on “Winged Foal” to show where it’s going.  I can tell I’m going to have to make the color of the horse a little more intense, as well as blending in the bottom of the background.  So, in all it’s glory (so far), “Winged Foal”   (Grammar police note: I…

  • Oh, the AGONY…..

    “Winged Foal” is coming along agonizingly slow.  It could be because I picked up a heavy, cast iron pan with my right hand alone.  Managed to do something to my wrist and hand.   They’re sort of numb, now, making it hard to grasp a pencil.  So, enough complaining. Here’s another abstract from my long lost…

  • Less than a success….

    I didn’t make much money at the Artisan Market in Soho.  I was kind of stuck downstairs in a corner.  I did get some good exposure, but not enough to justify the expense.  Anyway, back to the street idea.   For those of you who might be interested: Petition to Revoke Restrictions on Street Artists…

  • Completely Illrelevant, but then again, maybe not….

    I’ll be working on the background of “Winged Foal”, and I expect it will take some time.  Rather than bore you with repetitive pictures of the progress, I thought I’d post something I’ve shown no one, until now. A few years back I was totally stuck.  My representational art was coming out less than awesome. …
