  • A little bit of this, a little bit of that

    A little bit of this, a little bit of that

    It looks as if my subject matter in Danbury, Connecticut is going the same way as in Sunnyside, Queens.  Bits and pieces of the neighborhood, put together in multiple ways…so, I’m starting… A little bit of this: A little bit of that…. And then there’s that… Not to mention this… And believe it or not……this:…

  • Buzzing

    Buzzing

    Ever have one of those damn bugs, buzzing around your head in a threatening manner?  You don’t know whether to swat and kill the damn thing, or steadfastly ignore it.  Ideas in art can be the same way. The drawing I’m referring to is based on this photo:   Trust me.  It was a lot…

  • And Then It Dawned On Me

    On nights when I’ve had trouble sleeping, I’ve stared out the window as morning approaches.  The sky looks peaceful and promising, not vibrant and bright as it does at sunset.  So, what makes a sunrise picture look different than a blazing sunset? “Red sky at night,  sailors’ delight” Red sky at morning, sailors take warning”…

  • Downloading……Please Wait…….

    This is the finish of ‘White Tree’.  True, not a name brimming with pizzazz and originality, but it is true.  It’s also a winter themed drawing, that may end up as a Christmas card, next year, with a more imaginative title at that time.   And so, now what’s next? Honestly, there are so many…

  • Wishing You Joy…and a Couple of Blasts from the Past.

    I know I must sound like a broken record, referring to healing art.  Simply put, when a person is down and miserable, I want to supply an antidote.  My work is unabashedly feel-good, joyous and happy.  Making it brings me out of a chronic depression….I hope viewing it makes you happier, too. So, be it.…

  • When life throws you a curve ball, make lemonaide

    Hello Folks, WordPress is not as insistent as Facebook at least, which reminds me EVERY DAY, how long it is since I’ve posted.  So, thanks for being patient, WordPress, and thanks to my followers, too. There’s a good reason why I haven’t posted.  I haven’t done any artwork, except a version of the couple dancing,…

  • A Day in the Life, and a Work in Progress

    Damn!  This is the first day off from work I’ve had in seven days.  I had forgotten how precious free time is when you work full time. Most important thing done today, laundry.  Honestly, I couldn’t have gone any longer without washing clothes, unless I turned them inside out and wore them that way.  As…

  • No Place Like Home…..

    I’ve started work on the large “Freedom Tower”, but so far, don’t really have enough to show a work in progress. So here’s something I did a little earlier.  It’s one of the Paradise series.  It’s an interior, for I know some for some people, paradise is their own home.  That is, especially if it…
