It’s That Time Again…
I renewed this blog again. I wasn’t sure if I was going to, it gets expensive after a while, but here I went, and did it anyway. Which brings to mind, just what was I doing over ten years when I started this blog? This was the last picture on display long, long time ago.…

Blackout !
“I’ve seen the lights go out on Broadway, I’ve seen the Empire State laid low.” – Billy Joel Right now, Rose Garden is going slowly. It’s through no fault of my own, but pet owners will understand. Pumpkin has taken up a new sleeping spot, right behind my easel. It’s a choice between letting…

This is not my Photograph
Fabulous Photo I found this on Google Earth, and it’s credited to Jan Prosek. I’ve been trying to seek out a website or a link to his work, to give him proper credit. It’s fantastic. I have artist envy. I also wish I could find a way to paste the image in, rather just link…

All in a Day’s Work
I’m kind of struggling here. I’m trying to catch the excitement that I had for the artwork I did in New York, but have yet to capture in Connecticut. Most of my work here, has come out boringly representational. I kind of realize the elements I’m missing… I did put human objects as subject matter,…

Well, maybe it’s not so bad after all….

So for what it’s worth. In the meantime, Grand Central Terminal is really hopping for the holiday season. It was so freaking…

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…

What the Hell do you think this is????????????? Grand Central Station?
Somewhere, in my childhood, a teacher chided us like that. So indeed, Grand Central Station is usually filled with noisy crowds. I’m working from a photo I took when the station wasn’t that crowded…..a Saturday morning. Grand Central Station is mostly marble and stone. So, one tends to think in terms of grays, and whites,…

All together now!
As I’ve started this drawing of Grand Central Terminal, another memory of September 11 came to mind. As many people were reported missing, posters went up all over looking for missing loved ones. Eventually, the Terminal put up a wall, at first as a place to post searches, and unfortunately, it became a memorial. On…

Which is more awesome?
I’m getting started on the 5×7 layout for the Grand Central Station pic. Don’t have a title for it yet. I have a black and white pencil outline, and I’m contemplating the color scheme. Since sunlight is such a big player in this picture, I have to decide how best to express that. Then there’s…
