i had a great time yesterday exploring a
wonderful old abandoned building with some
friends. my friend frank took this photo of me,
and i really dig it. he is a swell guy.

studio shots and abandoned buildings

i took these photos today

my day

i had a really great day today. i started to type
the events of the day one by one but quickly lost
patience! i sure do love days like this.
here is a photo i took earlier of one of my favorite
buildings in town. it just so happens that the other
side of this building is the view from my new
studio space which i am almost totally moved into!

beautiful day

it was such a warm day that i had to take
ricky to reynolda gardens to sketch instead
of staying couped up in his windowless studio.
it was so nice listening to the birds and
noticing the cute little bugs that kept landing
on my drawing pad.

new paintings! (and more...)

these photos are:
* the stinky tea i am supposed to drink for my headaches.

* sunny & tanner

* sunny & cheese

* the dog form i am going to paint for "Arts Unleashed",
a fundraiser for the Humane Society.
