Back Again
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…

Horsing Around
Well, the dog didn’t make the cut. Instead, I decided to go with a horse. 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…

Work It!
Still working out this art show thing. I’m playing around with different ideas, and one of the ideas is, yes……a dog. German Shepherd to be exact. Forgive the sketchiness, but after all , it is a sketch. My sketches never seem to look as good online as they do in person. But a dog is…

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…

I suppose that’s not a really big thing to complain about, but…

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…

I’ve spent years coming up with ideas to interpret beauty. Thing is, I’m running out of ideas. Which brings me back to something that happened years and years ago. No, actually decades. but we won’t talk about that. I was staying with an artist, who I considered to be a mentor. Considered? She actually was…

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…

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…
