Installed the Work

Drove to SF today in sunny weather. Much nicer than the day the art movers came! Jack and I installed all the work and to see Runt on the wall was very cool. If you're in the city I hope you'll stop in to see the exhibit. It'll be up till Dec. 4.

Paintings Headed for NY

The art shipper came today, in the rain and wind, to pick up two paintings for the traveling exhibit Infinite Mirror. First stop Syracuse, N.Y. I was the last stop and it was a packed truck as you can see by the photo. Coco even made the shippers see the art in her room.

Paintings in Progress

I should be finishing the paintings that I've already started, but I got into this one and will show it next week in SF. The top and bottom are different sizes so there is about a 3 to 4 inch difference on the left. The top is panel and the bottom is canvas. Still in progress.

This is also in progress, but should be finished by the weekend.

Goin to Jack Fischer's

These are 2 completed paintings that I just finished. Both are 40 x 50 inches. Acrylic on canvas.

Ok, after finishing the big painting I've been slackin watching Project Runway with Heather. Time to get crankin again so here is the latest.

Collaboration with Coco

I've been drawing over my daughter's (she's almost three) watercolor's, but the other day she got mad at me for using her artwork. She said she didn't like it. So now I have to ask permission and have her select them. Seems reasonable!

Coco Meets Sandow Birk

We were in San Francisco this past weekend and stopped in to see our friend Nathan at Catherine Clark Gallery. Sandow Birk was there with his wife and 4 month old daughter so we asked if we could get a photo of him with Coco to add to her web page. Thanks Sandow!

Coco is figuring out the painting by Scott Greene

Done?

I know my paintings are sometimes cluttered with stuff, so I'm taking it easy on this one. As Heather said the other day, "don't screw it up! Well I don't think I will and it is after all my painting, but I have been known to paint over paintings that looked pretty good at one time. It does make me question though what pair of eyes I'm using when evaluating a piece.

Just started this one last night.

DONE! July 10, 2010

Finally finished this painting today. Need to live with it for a while, but glad to get it done. Next!
