In the middle of the Mediterranean Sea..

Cyprus has run out of water, which is a pretty unsettling thought. Eight years ago I stayed in the village of Pyla & water was delievered two/three times a week. There were two chicken coups- brown ones for eating, which ones for eggs. There was a long dirt road that led to fig trees & the village church. There was my 94-year old great uncle, Turkish boys on mopeds & more second & third cousins than I knew possible....

Sidewalk Shopping II.

As Promised:

Sidewalk Shopping

As I was walking to Ditmars to get my hair cut today, I passed a semi old fashioned, but potentially really amazing mirror on the sidewalk awaiting a fate it seemed too promising to endure. And so I dragged my roommate out the door to help me get it home, cleaned, sanded, painted & now have a new addition to my apartment. It won't be complete without some big, black shiny things on the corners, but a picture is soon to come....

I believe that was the first time I turned someone's sidewalk trash to treasure, & it was thrilling.


I also made edamame soup two nights ago. It tasted better than it looked, but I suppose cooking is an art??

Grapefruit Reading

Acrylic 7x9.5in


This one is for Jenn B. My lovely grapefruit model.
She can read your future.

Where trees are taller than buildings..





I've been slacking. Not too horribly on creating art, but certainly on posting.
I spent some time in Connecticut, where I hiked, rode a motorcycle, swam, discovered random sculpture filled backyards, went to the Peabody Museum, explored Meridan & did some on location drawings at a private airport. This was quite possibly the biggest dandelion I have ever seen...

I think another visit is in order for blueberry picking & Bubble tea.

I have three pieces in the works..

Happy hot humid summer, all.
