September Lately

Painting on a Tuesday

Still Lives Appreciated

South Philly Handlettering

These guys just took the Irene Plywood off their windows. I love how someone is taking such good care of this empty bakery. Its kinda like a monument of what they had.


Is this address still some sort of foundery building? Grate is at 18th and Passyunk.

A Cross Section From the Summer

I finished a few more paintings the other day.

Outside This Summer

Spending more time outside doing artwork this summer. I figure if I toss in a bit of outdoor pieces that makes that much less time making more artwork that just sits in my basement studio. This one is at Frankford between Girard and Delaware Ave. on what is called Bookspace. With their permission the good people in Bookspace allowed me to do whatever I wanted.
I love working outside. People come by to talk, just watch, offer coconut water and other pleasantries. Bookspace's neighbors "The Lighting Emporium" proposed a piece outside their space. More on that soon I hope.

Paintings Together at Last

At last I have all my paintings organized a little better together on my flickr account as follows:
Oil Paintings
Watercolors
Puddle Paintings
Stencils
I'll be adding more to these folders and reposting these links as I go.

4/7/11

More moments not caught on camera in order to share those moments. It was well worth it.

Handletterer's Crafts

I have been obsessed with the sign painter lately. At work I stare at the lettering brushes everyday. They call out to me and whisper potential everytime I walk past them. This is the first of many projects I expect of myself this summer.

Art Energy

Father's Day got me thinking of responsibility to my new daughter Jonesy. Helping her on her way to realization of the universe. To feel and be a vessel of creativity just like Daddy does but in her own special way. This takes a lot of energy.
