haven't posted in a while, sorry

just wrote this:


Left behind, I sit and dream
of days and weeks and months and years.
Caught between now and then,
I murmur in pandiculation:
"The most beautiful things I will ever see,
will they ever really happen to me?"
The moment replies:
"Goodbye."



CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZ.

new work in two posts, pt.1




these were more experiments in subtitles . . . which are not finished yet. Each painting is 4"x5". They're all relatively small, but I've been working on them in layers. There are probably at least 8 layers of oil paint on there, with gesso and ink that makes about 10, and then I'm probably going to varnish them later, so all in all they'll each be about 2 inches thick when I'm done.
ok, that's an exaggeration, but it's a good one.

male and female





two new large-scale drawings I did in my backyard. (Sorry but the shadows in the yard made for lousy pictures.) I was playing with a mixture of ground charcoal, ink and water. They came out pretty decent, but there's a part of me that's moved on to other ideas. I might just keep doing more of these, but already I have an idea of what direction I want to go in with some oil paintings. It's hard to remember just to have fun with it, when you're still trying to figure out what "it" is.

also: chalk. and a dinky self-portrait.
