Blue Fox
Just to wrap up on my previous post on a series of sketches I’d been doing in the print studio. Here is the final version, at least for now, as I’m not sure how or whether to pursue the idea. I’m already working on a different thread, and you can get a preview of small…

In Which I Offer An Explanation of Sorts, Though I May Have Lied About The "Pina Colada Song"
Where did June/July go to? I meant to post, I really did. It would have been a good time to post the anxiously awaited Squishtoid Manifesto, but my infinitely staffed simian writing pool with their infinitely equipped Remington Selectrics dropped the ball, it must be said. Instead of witty, trenchant, action-inspiring words for artists, we…

Rain, Rain, Raiiin; I Don’t Mind
I haven’t posted for a while, mostly due to preparations for the Art Students League Summer Art Market in Central Denver. As you can see, weather was less than art show-like. We had a total of 20 minutes of sun all weekend, with serial downpours, and temps so low you could see your breath. I’m…

Millions of Monkeys are banging away in the back room on surplus Remington Selectrics, hard at work on the long-awaited Squishtoid Manifesto…well, wait. It appears they’re actually working on the long promised World Cup brackets, actually. Anyway, it appears the monkeys and I have gotten a bit behind. I’ve been getting ready for the Art…

May already! This is a very busy time of year for me even without a day job, have no idea how I managed it with one. This post will be a hodge podge just to let you know I’m still breathing- I’ll shoot for a longer post later this week. First, thank you to Conor…

The Cruelest Month?
I remember being bored at times back in January/February, when it too cold to go out, and I would prowl through the shelves looking for something new to read, or re-read. Now, in wet, gray April/May, with the workshop, and the show at Open Press (opening tonight!), boredom is not a problem. It’s been a…

Pot-Boiler
Not sure how I ever found time for all this stuff with a day job! April is always a little frantic compared to the winter months, though. My monotype workshop at the Art Students League has definitely taken up some hours in prep time, for sure. The artists themselves are very fun to work with;…

Hard at work, getting ready for a show in Salida, CO. The complete info is on my Facebook page. Here’s a link. For those in Denver or the Rockies, it’s a great little daytrip, and you get a good view of College Peaks. The show itself is right on the Arkansas River. The website for…

Eyes on the road, hands upon the wheel
Now comes the tricky part. Producing and preparing for a show in August. Should be a quiet summer, as the last one didn’t produce much cash. So plenty of time to make and frame prints, and hope that Salida is a bit more art-oriented than Casper during these recession times. I will also be preparing…

Tornado Discount? Hell, yeah!
I wish all Art Fairs were like the Art Students League of Denver Summer Art Market The crowds are always there, and they are rarely there for the hot dogs. They are there for art. It’s a great little fair. I’m never bored there, partly because of the strong crowds, partly because it’s such a…
