Mid-way in darkness

Today is time to reach 25k in the word count– midway through the month of November. It's dark inside today; the darkness of winter has fallen. And yet– I  heard the song of the ice cream truck outside around noon.

It's one of my favorite things to do, so made the fact I had to move into a big, three-dimensional art project.… Continue reading A design update

Just at the moment everything feels far away. Feeling good about the new space, though. Moving is odd and sudden; takes time… Continue reading New digs

Opening reception

"the Leaving" in the gallery at Brooklyn Artists Gym The opening was well-attended last night, and the show nicely curated, I think. There was a wide array of interpretations of the theme; from scenes of cozy interiors, to urban street scenes, to renderings bordering on the architectural. Though primarily made up of paintings, there was… Continue reading Opening reception
