    No Idea

    Here’s the finish, of, well, some drawing or other. I don’t have a title for it. Ever since that curator said my titles weren’t interesting, I’ve gotten a complex. I thought my titles were interesting! So, what should I call this, that’s interesting? “Dandelion Field with Tree” “Tree with Dandelion Field” “Maple in Bloom with…

    A Day in my Life….

    WordPress has been doing a new thing. It has a post of a question, which I imagine is is to trigger bloggers with ideas. Today’s question is, to paraphrase, what is your first hour awake like? What does the beginning of your day? Ok, honestly, if I were to answer that : I make and…

    Every So Often, Once in a While

    Sometimes, I get the urge to do something experimental. No, not leaving some poor dog to starve on a gallery floor. Can you believe that? Someone actually did that. My experiments are well within the parameters of my usual style. Sometimes, they’re a success, and sometimes, damn it, they’re dismal failures: The featured picture all…

    Well, That Went Over Like a Lead Balloon

    As you may recall, I was going to start another blog on my new gallery site, and leave this one in the dust. It just wasn’t a great design for a blog, I couldn’t add pictures, and I’ve got all of you over here already enjoying what I write. So, for my gallery site, go…

    Shakin’ It Up

    Thought I’d try something different for a change. I know, I know, I often say I’m going to change my artwork, do one different picture, then back to the same old stuff. So, I’m just going to, as I wrote, try. So, I finally did do a version of the small airplane that I like.…

    And the Story Continues…

    So, I’ve been reading and listening to all sorts of tips to sell my art. My head is spinning around now, and I frequently ask myself? Is this worth it? The answer is yes, it’s been what I’ve wanted all my life. That is, if I don’t want to be really pissed off on my…

    Back Again

    It occurs to me that any of you who might live nearby, the location of this show will be on Main Street, Danbury CT. It runs from 12-6pm on June 4, 2022. I don’t know where exactly along the festival I’ll be, but I’ll let you know. Getting down to the wire, and I’m going…

  • See you soon!

    See you soon!

    Once again, I’m going to disappear for a while, once again, getting ready for a show. This works out well, because I’m stuck for an idea. Actually, instead of stuck because I have no ideas, I actually have too many ideas!
