As the crow flies
I made an artist book “As The Crow Flies” for my exhibit at the Caplan Art Designs Gallery– opening Oct 3 – my book was inspired when I realized that with 8 independent bookstores and 12 public library branches in the town where I live that wherever I go in town I’m within about 2…

Yesterday I delivered 20 artworks to the Caplan Art Designs Gallery for my upcoming exhibit opening Oct 3 from 6 to 8 pm. Here’s a look at my studio prior to packing up the car to deliver it all. And a video look at everything while I talk some… My wife and I packed our…

Eggheads forum
As I’ve worked on my Eggheads sculpture – hand painting heads on 12 solid wood eggs and bodies on 12 solid wood egg cups – I thought about how smart people are as essential to society as eggs are to a working kitchen. In the background of my thinking was a question of how to…

Other things have been happening too with the results being that I’ve not had much time for blogging. But all the while I’ve been not-blogging I’ve been working a little along towards my upcoming one person exhibit at Caplan Art…

Flew the coop
Last week I shared the beginning of a new painting. I continued to work on it in short bursts despite a busy week that included intense physical therapy for my ankle. Thank goodness for work stools on wheels. As I painted I thought about the various confining worldviews I have lived within during my life…

Ducks in a row
This painting that I began in my last post was inspired by one of my nephews who teased me, gently, about saying so often during our family domino games that I “need a minute to get my ducks in a row”. Apparantly I tend to focus on our family conversations during our games rather than…

Half assed
In my last post I told about finally being able to work in short bursts at my studio easel on a larger painting inspired by a conversation with our Fairy Goddaughter. She had talked about the distinction between things done “half assed” and things that were done acceptably as “good enough” meaning that while one…

Not my cup of tea
I was thinking of high tea as I worked on my last painting “Eager Beaver” so as I began a new artwork I continued thinking of tea related thoughts and phrases. At the time I was beginning the new painting some dear friends shared that they were taking a road trip to see the plants…
