I have not spent any time in my studio that is worth mentioning lately. I can't really tell you all I have been up to, because I turn around and another week is gone. One thing I did this week was drive the last chick around to work and school. His car was in the shop and he had places to go and things to do.
I am one of the few people who really enjoyed driving the kids around. It was like having them totally to yourself with out all the distractions of home. I learned a lot about my kids in the car. They seemed to open up and talk. This week was no different.
Classes are in town and this means I can take a quick jaunt to the river front. My camera always is happy at the river. This week I found a lot of graffiti which then sent me on an internet search and to various web sites. I was trying to figure out what some of the signs and "tags" mean. Some were incredible. I especially liked a kid from London who calls himself "Jef Aerosol". The stencil of the boy is one of his.
The 4 by 4's are watercolor paper painted, stamped and collaged with various images and pieces of old mail. Something to warm up with so I can get motivated to finish off a few projects.
