oh my gouache
The cookbook signing I did recently with Chef Kim Mahan went very well (cookbook info here) and then I took some days off. Which means that I read books and dabbled with a new-to-me art media – gouache. You see my wife and I went with a fellow artist friend of ours, Donna Young, (www.donnayoung.com)…

It was adventurous but the cookbook is here
When I last wrote I was waiting impatiently for the short-print-run of the unconventional cookbook “Kim Cooks Sue Draws” to get here. That was just the beginning. It was Thanksgiving weekend, a cold rainy night, and Sweetie and I were on our way out the door to a party. We’d just opened the door to…

peppers and burgers oh my and artist books too
Chef Kim Mahan came to my studio for a visit and made some decisions about recipes. We are cooking with real butter now!

With this in mind I’m working with Chef Kim Mahan (www.class-cooking.com) to create an unconventional cookbook titled “Kim…

feline fine
Around the edges of writing a speech and getting ready for several major art-events I’ve begun to do some cat artworks. I’ll still be doing my dog art – don’t worry – I’m just adding cats to the mix. In 2018 I’m hoping to do a book of cats – much like my currently available book “Dogs…

more from time tavern
I’ve been very busy lately on several major projects that I can’t talk about publicly yet. Which is why you’ve not seen much of me online. I have managed to squeeze in a bit of work, 5 minutes here or there, on my sketchbook for the Brooklyn Art Library’s Sketchbook Project. I’m still thinking the title…
