Deep Six It
Remember the drawing of the person on the bike that I did in last week’s post? I decided with the orange and yellowy stripes, it looked more like a person on a bicycle plowing a wheat field. So, with a purpose to make the asphalt look more like asphalt, I diddled around with it. Then…

Hey Ho, Hey Ho
It’s off to the easel I go. Finally I have a clear mind, or at least clearer than it was. I’m not sure how I feel about this. It’s one of those deals when I look at it puzzedly Autocorrect it telling me there is no such word..but hey, I’m a creator, I can make…

Alpha Beta Gamma
It looks as if I’ve finally mastered this beta version of the new editor for WordPress. Which brings to mind, why are we using the English alphabet for these mysterious purposes such as versions of applications, brain waves, and variants of covid? As for Greek letters, I’m all too familiar with omicron. So, given the…

It occurs to me that any of you who might live nearby, the location of this show will be on Main Street, Danbury CT. It runs from 12-6pm on June 4, 2022. I don’t know where exactly along the festival I’ll be, but I’ll let you know. Getting down to the wire, and I’m going…

Here’s the first sketch: It suddenly dawned on me, that combining an interesting animal with a peaceful landscape not impossible. It’s closer to my sample than a dog in an interior.. I’ll probably put the good old German Shepherd in…

Experiment #1
Okay, when the going gets rough, I do do cute. This is a representational subject with abstract elements. And it’s cute. So, I’d say as a drawing , it’s moderately successful. What got me, is finding a title. By The Lake? I decided on simply “Gaggle”. It’s short, elegant, and to the point. So, as…

January 9, Midmorning
Finally the holiday decorations are disappearing. They’re gone from the mall, they’re gone from Main Street. In fact, the only place that still has Christmas lights left, is the house of our neighbor across the street. He’ll take then down around Valentines day. I suppose that’s not a really big thing to complain about, but…

Alfred Hitchcock Strikes Again!
Or maybe it’s Bob Marley’s talking birds saying not to worry. Anyway, birds. Again. We’re into autumn now, soon to take a turn into winter. I will be away for Halloween, visiting and celebrating with a friend in the Midwest. Crows make a great subject for Halloween, and fall in general. And winter, for that…
