Feeding the friendly chickadees. They are fearless and hungry for sunflower seeds! Great day for sledding! (Also very familiar to that ink drawing I did a few days prior...) photos taken on December 27, 2010

Snowscape
Treescape in snow 4.5" x 11", Ink washes and gouache on hot pressed watercolor paper, 2010 ps - looks nice with the digital WordPress snow, eh? And did you notice? The snow follows your cursor.
Happy December, almost–
Yay the digital snow is back! I love it, so cheerful and soothing. I've been ill and, sadly, missed the Great Margolis Migration Manifestation up in Barryville over the weekend. Yes, ill with what Kim and I have dubbed the Brooklyn Plague, as it seems to've been making some rounds. Here's how mine has gone,… Continue reading Happy December, almost–
Snow Day!
Looking out through plant leaves at the snow accumulating A man hunched against the wind and snow, crossing the street on 5th Avenue A car slowly blanketed by accumulation The streets are uncommonly deserted in midday along the avenue Even with it so bright outside, the apartment gets dark with snow build-up, as the skylights… Continue reading Snow Day!

Then, in an instant, the rain (having become bored of its own properties perhaps) turned to snow-- BIG SNOW. Lasting only a couple of hours, by afternoon it was seemingly Springtime again: sunny and dry.
They’re alive!!
snowmen! Prospect Park Well, my camera and I did make it to the park briefly yesternoon, and had I not worn sunglasses I'd have been blinded. So sunny and bright. However, not a single square meter of snow remained un-trounced-upon! Shards of sleds lay about, of both store-bought and improvised varieties. I imagine it must… Continue reading They’re alive!!

It was beautiful. Interesting that it was the record amount of snow dumped upon this mad metropolis; I'm sure a qualifier is in order: "...in a 24 hour period", or "... all in one fell swoop". But a fair swoop it was! Unless, I suppose, you were needing to drive somewhere, or had an aversion… Continue reading post blizzard
