umbrella?




Goauche paint, water color, ink
Notes: This robot will be a recurring character, because I love robots. I painted this during the weekend of hurricane Irene. Fortunately, my immediate neighborhood wasn't hit very hard. We only got some strong rains and blustery winds. But my thoughts and love go out to those that were hit harder.

august adventures!

Exploring Gowanus & Carroll Gardens in Brooklyn with TK!

The canals in Carroll Gardens, BK.

Visiting the MET to check out the Alexander McQueen exhibit. Then hanging out in TK's Aunt's pent haus in the upper west side with that ADORABLE dog.

Summer Streets with Steve! Every Saturday in August from 7am to 1pm, 4th Avenue is shut down and becomes as pedestrian/biker/rollerblading/skateboarding/etc. only lane, from the 70's to the BK Bridge. It's AWESOME.

old photographs.

I love old photographs. & I love making up stories about the people in them, based on context clues in the photo (ex. photo: trophy in the background. = story: he was a great basketball player back in the day...) and random fancies that pop in the ol' noggin (ex. ... because he could FLY).




Found photographs, pen, watercolor, tracing paper, watercolor paper
Notes: The watercolor images are old photograph subjects as well, that I traced over with tracing paper. None of the images are in fact related to each other. I just looked for images that could work together visually.

the butterfly counts not months.


Charcoal, pencil, sumi ink, paper
Notes: I have a strange attraction to the heart organ.
