• Ringing Out the Bad

    Ringing Out the Bad

    I used to have a tradition at New Year to post my worst drawing of the previous year. It was meant as a twist on everyone posting the best. But I drifted away from it. Why? I don’t know. Maybe too much to choose from? One thing about being prolific is that you have proportionately…

  • Spinning….!

    Spinning….!

    Here’s a thought. I’m getting behind on my artwork, due to other stuff going on. Still, I felt the need to do something. So, I had this great idea! Okay, maybe not a great idea, but at least an idea. Why not post the drawings of mine that I like. I like, but, for some…

  • Selling in

    Selling in

    Bummerooni? Is there such a word? Of course, the root of this word is “bummer “. I think it originated with the description of a bad LSD trip. Somehow, the term “bummer ” has survived. I suppose there is nothing that is quite as accurately descriptive. So,something I consider a bummer in my life, was…

  • Redunnit

    Redunnit

    I volunteered at the Sono Art Festival in Norwalk, CT,  yesterday. I worked hard,but I had a lot of fun!  The artists were superb, and I made great friends, even if it was just for a few hours.  A very well run show and I hope to exhibit in it sometime in the future. But…

  • I Don’t Like It

    I Don’t Like It

    Phooey!  Dammit, damn, damn  and damn, again! I really don’t like the way this turned out. It was supposed to be carefree…..but to me, it looks sloppy and lazy.  The piece of fecal matter I mentioned before.  I really had wanted it to come out like this: This: Or even this!   Here I’ve done…

  • Missed the Boat…

    Missed the Boat…

    Every so often, I do something that, to me, is unacceptable.  In other words I….fail. Usually I don’t redo the ones that miss the mark, but this time I will. The featured picture is probably the best of the tries I made of this idea.  I did it when I was painting with acrylic, rhinestones…

  • It’s that time of year again…..Happy New Year!

    Right about now, all sorts of news stories are printed about the triumphs of the year.  I however,  with my contrary streak, am going to display my biggest flops of the year. It helps me to remember I can fail, and I hope it helps beginning artists not to be discouraged.  Everyone screws up now…

  • For what it’s worth…here’s Grand Central Sunday Morning

    Well, I finished “Grand Central Sunday Morning”, and I’m totally dissatisified with it.  And no, I  don’t have the patience to do it again.  I realize that I have a weakness when it comes to architectual detail, such as I found out in “Sentinel”. Every so often, a group of art students gather in Grand…

  • Audrey II is growing again….

    After taking a bit of time off, having fun, and desparing about finding another paying job….I’m working on Scraggly Weed, again. This time, I decided to take it slow, and as I did in Pocket Paradise, do each butterfly and each flowing plume as if it were a mini-drawing in itself….so, I’ve just started, nothing…
