October 30, 2010


I have been painting though I have posted nothing. I have two to add but there are many more.
A long time ago I lived in the woods and did drawings for the local newspaper. I no longer live in the woods, but still go to the cabin. I had a small studio then, in the woods as well. I illustrated articles that were hard to photograph. I enjoyed translating a written story into a visual image. I saved my many drawings and recently I found myself looking through them. They were in the process of aging, both from time and from animals that passed through the studio. I liked them once again. It took me some trips back and forth to make photographs that were adequate for the web. I selected some I thought withstood the test of time. They are here on the website. Here is an example of one- a dream of a tiger and me. and another I always liked. Doesn't it feel like you are on the bench sometimes?
I add two paintings now too.
