Sunday, March 30, 2014. Okay, last weekend at this time I was lying on the beach in Malibu. Today, I write about it from rainy Brooklyn. It's ok, it is a little warmer here, at least :). Above was shot by Melissa Zexter in Santa Monica. We travelled to LA together. To see my Subway Animals. And to visit her cousin Judy and family. Got us there safely, but not without a snack issue. I purchased a sandwich which came with chips. Yay! Held up a big bag of Chex mix. And said, "NO! But I can sell you THIS!

Tuesday, November 25, 2014. Thomasina Turkey hosts a Vegetarian Thanksgiving. Thomasina blew outta Brooklyn. Back in 2010, after learning just what was in store for her! She's since lived in the woods with her family and friends. I painted this several years ago. For If I Were A Toy. Most of you know that I painted monthly custom scenes. On this store's front door since 2010. They closed shop earlier this year, but my doors live on here :). I share this one every year because I like it. Links to this post.

Blipadee: May 2015
http://blipadee.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 26, 2015. Crabs, seashells and flowers for you :). I recently ran into a friend on the street wearing mustard colored pants. I came home and immediately made some paintings with it as a background. Above, is my favorite. The assignment this month for Lilla Rogers. 1-3 plate designs : crustaceans pattern. The blue crab, above, probably got a bit too painterly for a plate,. But I cleaned it up some for the final submission, which is at the bottom of post. My set of summer plates. Click here.

Thursday, May 7, 2015. Spring Flowers, Paint, Patterns and People. So far, May has been a lovely sunny month! I try to eat out and outside as much as possible. In my neighborhood, I tend to.

Open windows for that semi. This is Fiona, I think it's obvious she loves flowers. It was just a color sketch for a MATS. Fun to see yo...

Blipadee: April 2014
http://blipadee.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 21, 2014. My friend, Fox. And the sweet crow he swindled out of some cheese . This is my book cover art for The Fox and The Crow. This was the 3rd assignment for MATS. 3A class with Lilla Rogers. Read more about the course and see sketches in last week's post, if you'd like. You can see by his collection, he gets around! The title could look cuter if reworked, I think. I didn't leave as much time for that,. But I wanted something quirky to offset the traditional look of my painting style.
