A Corner on the Market
I’m not one into doing WIPs, since I don’t think they’re of any interest to anyone but me. The one above, however, had an abstract effect, so I added it anyway. It’s actually just the corner, and I have a long way to go. What came to mind as I did that, is what about…

Getting Back in the Swing!
I’ve been out of the art scene for a while now, except for note cards. Finally, finally, finally, I did an full-sized original piece. It seems behind a bit of skill of my usual pieces, but then, I guess it’ll take some time to get back to speed. It’s snowing here, most snow we’ve had…

Experiment #1
Okay, when the going gets rough, I do do cute. This is a representational subject with abstract elements. And it’s cute. So, I’d say as a drawing , it’s moderately successful. What got me, is finding a title. By The Lake? I decided on simply “Gaggle”. It’s short, elegant, and to the point. So, as…

IT COMES DOWN TO THIS……
One day,, two little abstracts later, and I’m already bored. I remember an art class in 5th grade. We were given a lot of sticks, told to drop the sticks anywhere the cardboard we were given, have fun don’t make anything. While the other students were making abstracts worthy of Jackson Pollack, I decided to…

ROADBLOCK!
Okay, you’ve seen this before. And, here it is, again! You might be wondering why I’m posting old artwork. There’s a reason. Here it is: I’m stuck. I’m in an artistic traffic jam, when there is a stalled car up ahead, and you’re hours behind it in a stopped highway. And then, the police try…

I’ve Gone Abstract!
I pushed them aside, thinking, that’s not me, they’re gimmicks. Old stick in the mud me. Years ago, while I was working on my subjective art, every so often, an idea would come to me for an abstract piece, a conceptual piece or wildly ,well,wild ideas. I wonder at times if I followed that path,…

The Subject Is Titles
I haven’t done much abstract art. When I do, though, I don’t label it “Untitled “. Can you imagine this being entitled “Untitled “? I’d probably be asking, “Can’t you give me a clue?”. But you don’t have to ask, it’s called “Guardian Angel”. Not to be confused by this: Okay, I don’t play games.…

A Creative Life, Told in Pictures
Or, my flirtation with abstraction. Long ago, I feel in love with reality. Hard to explain that, right? I don’t go much for fantasy movies, or fiction for that matter. Give me a good, non-fiction book on modern physics or psychology, and I’m happy. So, when it came to art, I liked to portray things…

There is Nothing You Can Name, That is Anything Like the Flu
Greetings, friends… Facebook is letting me know that I’m letting my followers down. Sorry about that. Truth is, I’ve had the flu! It’s hard to concentrate on drawing, art, and making sense of things in general, when you’re coughing your throat up, and your sinuses are as clogged as The Long Island Expressway at rush…
