These are some wonderful small cabinet card photos I picked up in Utrecht in a little store specializing in picture post cards and other ephemera. The top image shows the gilt studio information for the photographer– one of the loveliest I've seen. It's on the back of the first photo card, the oval, which is… Continue reading treasures
Tired. (still on GMT.) Very smooth traveling, though-- actually a pleasant plane trip and only seven hours to get back. Here's another drawing, for now, from the trip book. It's of part of the vast and winding interior of The Sheep Heid Inn in Duddingston, Edinburgh (we did not play skittles, alas) on the far… Continue reading Home from abroad
Amsterdam; the Westerkirk in the background. Edinburgh; Dean Village along the Water of Leith Well I thought I might have been better about adding things here whilst traveling, as I brought my laptop, but no, not really. The days are getting short though, and thoughts of the work waiting at home are beginning to creep… Continue reading travels
Used the photobooth on my macbook to get these rather grainy images from my sketchbook. It's not much, but until I get a proper USB for the camera, it's all I've got! the buildings out back of where we're staying interior of a restaurant in Noord called Pollux; it's in a big old wooden boat.
Ben and I arrived yesterday to a sunny, warm day and did much walking and wandering (after a nap at Wouter & Brandon's house, as we were neither of us able ot sleep a wink on the plane. I wanted to put some photos up from our first day, and just went to retrieve the… Continue reading amsterdam
The change into autumn has begun; less humidity, cooler nights, and Alas! it begins to grow dark well before 8:00 these days. In honor of the waning summer, following are a few selects from that weekend we went to the North Fork of Long Island last month. I cannot help but to get sad at… Continue reading a few photos (overdue) from the Upper Tine
That is, the North Fork (of Long Island). Miscellaneous sketches from a weekend away, locally. Ben; the posse at delicious dinner table (it was a weekend of good foodie chefs in the house); and finally a random sketch began on Saturday evening, but finally finished this evening (at TWB in Exile's first meeting). None of… Continue reading a weekend on the upper tine
Prince and Red. His mane is exceedingly long, quite proper for an Arabian (though his face looks mostly Thoroughbred, despite his having only 25% of that breed in his Anglo-Arab genealogy.) Some photos of Red from my trip Upstate to the Farm. He's getting up there– 28 years of age; still the master of the… Continue reading Red in the sun
stills from my very short video Over the weekend Ben and I went upstate to visit his family. While we were there, the DIGIT expo was going on at the Arts Alliance gallery in Narrowsburg, including the "Quick & Gritty Video Slam"– a project whose requirements involved shooting footage in the town between Friday and… Continue reading DVAA Digital Media Expo
(Or Bacchanal on the rainy day) Here is a pencil drawing I did this evening of the wine store/bar in Bywater that Ben and I fell in love with. The place was at the ass-end of Chartres Street, in an Industrial/residential milieu that definitely grabbed our Brooklyn-based minds (Think Gowanus area). This patchwork-quilt of a… Continue reading this corner of Bywater
