Back to the Day Job
Here’s a shot of the mall, where I work. There’s a carousal, which probably came from the old state fair for which Danbury, CT was known. I’ve done some drawing of the carousal, as this one: And this one: In a sudden turn of subject, there’s a song that was popular in the 60’s……….The Windmills […]

I Can’t Get Over A Guy Like You
Well, my “Crow in Summer ” bombed. Sometimes that happens. No, actually that often happens. Sometimes, I can fix it. Sometimes, I can redo it. Sometimes, though, I don’t care of enough to do either. Like now. So, that left me with the task of finding a new idea. Nothing came at me in a […]

FAIR DANBURY FAIR
One of the more fond memories of Danbury, is the state fair that came around every fall. That is, until 1981. Now the fairgrounds is a shopping mall. Still, there is still, a lot of good subject matter here. Why this fuss about Danbury? I’m part of a pop-up that just popped up on Friday […]

Making Peace with Winter
Hello folks! I’ve mentioned before about my seasonal depression, and guess what! It’s nearly winter again. I did a series of drawings one year, making peace with each month. For instance, this was “Making Peace with November”. And this was “Making Peace with December” I believe this one was “Making Peace with January”, but as […]

There’s No Business, like well you know…
Last Saturday was the Danbury Street Fair! In which I participated in as an artist. I was able to do this on the cheap, without investing hundreds of dollars on equipment. I was breathlessly waiting to take the tent from its case. I only paid $65 and a trip to Queens, NY, so there would […]

Bricks
A little background info…. I’ve been away for a while, in case you haven’t noticed. I needed some time to reflect, think about where I’ve been, where I’m going and most importantly, where I am. And it all comes down to bricks…well, sort of. When I first really got going working in colored pencil, I […]
