I Stare At People. I Love To Do Oil Sketches of People “Live”(usually, they don’t know). I painted John Erik Metcalf working at Conjunctured last night. This is a quick painting that I did of John Erik at Conjunctured. Do you know what a “jelly” is? I didn’t know until a couple of months ago. Cesar’s blog,. Does a great job of describing this international phenomena. I found out about the coworking movement as I was researching online for coffeeshops where I could paint. Painting people from life allows ...

Mueller Pioneers: June 2007
http://muellerpioneers.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Mueller is a redevelopment project in Austin, TX, on the site of the old Austin airport. Friday, June 29, 2007. The Mueller Yahoo Group had a message today with a list of new retailers:. I buy that, and it's good that these retailers are just going into the "retail" portion along I-35. But I can't help thinking that now that these chains have a foothold, they'll be squeezing their way into the portions of Mueller that are supposed to be more "Austin". Especially Starbucks. Or a Progress Coffee. If you ca...

Prentiss Riddle: Books
http://aprendizdetodo.com/books
Aprendiz de todo, maestro de nada. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read. I'm back in school again with a semester's worth of deadlines stretching before me, so now it's time for one of life's guilty pleasures: procrastination reading. Like the time I put off writing a German paper to take up a sudden passion for Papiamento. At the moment I'm in the grip of two fine examples of frivolity in scholar's clothing. The Highly Civilized Man: Richard Burton and the Victorian World. By Mary Lovell, and. Here's W...

Aprendiz de todo, maestro de nada. Texas claustrophobia, and a mystery town. There are times when the miles and miles of Texas feel like walls, not spaces. Memorial Day is coming up and I'll have a few days free but I'm too broke to fly anywhere and just a little too short on time for another Mexico bus trip. I'm having trouble thinking of anyplace within striking distance where I really want to go. So I'm feeling like a landlocked castaway: landscape, landscape everywhere and not a sight to see. Two puz...

Aprendiz de todo, maestro de nada. You're older than you ever were and now you're even older. If I could only find a comfortable chair. I love the lifehacks. People, but sometimes I think a quest for efficiency and the perfect creative environment is just another excuse for procrastination.

Prentiss Riddle: Music: Seela and Lala
http://aprendizdetodo.com/music?item=20070610
Aprendiz de todo, maestro de nada. Yesterday I made my first ever visit to End of an Ear to hear Seela and 3/4 of Torch. Do a record release show for their latest, Charmed. With this CD consisting largely of originals, Seela seems to be bringing the two halves together. To me the songwriting sounds a lot like her solo work on Hard Times Hit. I'll always have a personal attachment to Torch's earlier work but I have to cheer as they find their own voice. I can't believe I'd never made it to End of an Ear.
