  • I Can’t Get Over A Guy Like You

    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…

  • Something To Crow About

    Something To Crow About

    Although, I’m most fond of cats, as everyone knows, I also love crows. Oops, sorry, my mistake, that’s not a crow. Anyway, while I was browsing through Facebook, a suggestion for a group came up. It was about loving crows and their ilk. Oh, no, that’s not a crow, either. I could redo it as…

  • FAIR DANBURY FAIR

    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…

  • MORE GREEN, PLEASe

    MORE GREEN, PLEASe

    What, might you ask, has the above man strolling down an urban street, have to do with green? Nothing, except, while I was drawing him, my day’s priorities took the sudden turn around. Sometimes, when that happens, that’s a bad sign. This time it is good. How about this? So, why, may you ask, and…

  • Well, It !!!WAS!!! SUnny earlier

    Well, It !!!WAS!!! SUnny earlier

    Right now, this is the view from my living room window. As the title says “It WAS Sunny Earlier. And earlier, I decided to do a drawing of a rhododendron. No, not precisely. I signed up to do a pop-up show in downtown Danbury, and doing a mad dash to make as many notecards for…

  • Up in the Air.

    Up in the Air.

    Maybe one of you can help me with this. I’m totally confused, and maybe seriously, ….er, messed up. The good news is, I got a new desktop. The bad news is, I tried to transfer the photos on my phone to the new desktop. I may have made a big mistake. I think I should…

  • What Happened to YouTube?

    What Happened to YouTube?

    So, I realize that my idea of posting on YouTube is dead in still water. Why? I realized that the people who have really good video channels, post about a subject other than themselves. They’re informative, and entertaining. So, talking about one’s self, doesn’t seem to be all that interesting. Unless, of course, you’re a…

  • I’ve Gone Abstract!

    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,…

  • Herding (NOT Hoarding)cats

    Herding (NOT Hoarding)cats

    As I have told you year after year, time after time…..St. Patrick’s Day is my birthday. And what I have told you, only slightly as often, it’s also St. Gertrude of Nivelle’s Day. She’s the patron saint of cats….I found that this last tradition is only from the1980’s. I’m disappointed, that it’s not ancient lore…
