Got the scoop about My Space from my buddies at Wet Canvas. Looks interesting enough to try. And, it’s free. That’s always good. Myspace is supposed to be a great place for networking. Will keep you posted.
My butt hurts from sitting in this chair for 3 whole days in a row. I have been slaving over the computer, re-designing my website, In Art Studio. I have consumed gallons of coffee, and might have brain damage from all the caffeine. I look terrible, but new my website looks great. The old design […]
Another new sculpture just finished. “Harley” is a biker. He is bad to the bone, with his custom flame paint job. He wears a black leather Do-rag and sports a gold earring. He is so fun, I love the way he turned out. I wanted him to be free standing and viewable from all sides, […]
First comes a trip to the “Bone Yard” as I call it. I live on a ranch, and any animal carcasses are dumped in a corner of one of the fields. My problem is matching up and identifying the bones. There are so many of them, and all sizes and kinds. Pretty gruesome. My first […]
We have all seen “Father Time” represented as an kindly, old man with a long beard. My version of “Father Time” is not so gentle and kind looking. I wanted to illustrate time in relation to space. Time as infinity, yet time as short, with teeth. Wake up! Get going, before time bites you in […]
This is something really new for me, sculptures! It all started with a visit to Firedworks Gallery. The owner saw my 4″ faux turquoise cross necklace and asked if I could make the same thing only larger. “Of course I can” I boasted. Did I stick my foot in it or what? After a couple […]
I decide not to stress the old truck’s transmission pulling the trailer over Raton Pass, and detour North. Turned out to be a good plan, as I later heard that Raton Pass is closed due to smoke. I take a rarely used back road to Walsenburg. Didn’t see another car the whole way, so I […]
I can tell I’m in the west, when the landscape changes from farmland to grazing land. The trees are short, the green grass turns to sage brush, and the vistas become truly grand. The air changes too, I no longer need the air conditioner to fight the summer humidity. The air is drier, and clearer. […]
Driving from sun up to sun down and sleeping in my truck at rest stops, was a whole new experience. Truthfully, it wasn’t that bad. I met some nice people, learned that there are a lot of women driving 18 wheelers, and found endless photographic opportunities. I found that I could steer the truck with […]
After many months of preparation and planning, I left Florida and moved back West. I had not been looking forward to hauling a trailer 2400 miles. The idea of driving cross country, alone with no one but myself, to get me out of a jam, intimidated me. I had never towed anything before, and my […]
