Thinking about how much of the art I’ve made recently deviates so far from what’s been comfortable for the past twenty years. I can’t really claim that I don’t -or can’t- draw or paint anymore; and a teaching opportunity to play in ceramics has been a new avenue to re-explore.

Baby girl turned 18(!) today. Unable to hear, poor vision, crunchy joints but the bloodwork of a dog half her age somehow.
A student asked me why I was painting a strip of tape. I shrugged. Gouache on BFK, 5x7”.
One last @framebridge.bsky.social collab. Thanks for visiting!

Students didn’t appreciate it enough, so I brought it home and now it’ll live here forever.
One block, countless possibilities. Happy spoopy season.
First month of the new job down, so many more to go.
We’re doing it again! For pre-sale only, I’m re-editioning these 8x10” ‘Eat the Rich’ prints to raise funds for World Central Kitchen and ACLU Nationwide! $20 + $5 USA s/h or $10 international s/h. Pre-sale ends on 9/30, and prints will ship in early October. Venmo, PayPal, Zelle on request!
Taking on a new full-time job starting tomorrow. For some reason, they’re trusting me with keys.
when the AI bubble finally collapses and everyone who spent a year smugly hyping it suddenly has to come crawling back with their tail between their legs, i just want to say i am not going to be the bigger person about it. i am going to be meaner than you can even believe
the way we went from everyone stand 6 feet apart to immersive theatre everywhere
