went looking for this print recently, i had an idea what month it was from seeing it in the photographic record but when I dug out that pile of  prints it wasn't there.  tonight  I found it in a misc. pile i'd put it in;  it was on irregular stock.   reason I'd been looking [...]]]></description>

what's the fold? what am I holding back?  not sure which is harder at this point, working on the paintings or writing some halfway interesting copy?  last night I dreamt I was in a restaurant and there was a very light game of floor hockey about to take place.  about on the level of table [...]]]></description>

got that pink shirt altered.  I had a chance to wear it and I opted for black.  got a nice breeze thru window.  like to think about my feet being massaged.  yeah.  a nice foot massage.  walked all over town earlier.  just looking.  maybe bought some essentials.  had some ice cream.  this painting (50" x [...]]]></description>

haven't worn a pink shirt in a while.  didn't even own one for the last few years.  found one on sale for a fraction of retail and couldn't resist.  now I got to get the sleeves shortened.

it's something of a crap shoot every time I try reworking one of these.  this certainly reminds me of [...]]]></description>

worked for a sculptor once upon a time.  you know, he had a pit bull that loved to play fetch.  I took care of the dog one weekend when the sculptor went away.  nothing horrible happened.  he got rid of the dog when his little son came to visit.  of course the son was such [...]]]></description>

was a funny bird singing for hours in the middle of the night.  magpie was what it sounded like, a real derivative mocking bird type.  it was doing car alarms as part of it's repertoire.  might as well have been a mechanical bird... this got revised from the former post.  today everything is up for [...]]]></description>

surfing the web to find some images for Italian sculptor, Marisa Merz and a photo led me to an old review of the Venice Biennial, the Forbes critic was lamenting the fact that it was contemporary art, it had the Foxx news pander to it,  I don't understand it and I don't want to understand it. huh?

after reaching the frustration point on a new one I decided to attack a much too subtile painting (50 x 46")  from early april.  I suppose this is a collection of borrowed items.  
US Striker, Landon is the hero of the day.  this large painting (after six or so revisions) has got a little homage to picasso at the [...]]]></description>

these are monoprints from the ancient era before I got back into the brush...  too revealing was my gripe.  didn't like to see that much about myself.  brush strokes were really annoying.  griffes were another matter.

somehow these were vague enough in relation to my personal narrative so as not to blow me out.  having things [...]]]></description>

the inside/outside

in between two pieces.  was shocked to find it in a pile last week.  it's not about cake.

was kind of stuck on a certain kind of a line, made it back in there with the less psychological blobs. just now something bumped me in the head.  Crack!  start wearing down the rigor of pseudo-formalist [...]]]></description>
