mixed media (oil, reclaimed paper on reclaimed board, dirt) 2.5'x3' in pit
At the beginning of the week we began to hear the bulldozers and by the end of the week the woods behind my house were gone and there is now a huge pit. Everything gone. I painted this today trying to recall what was behind my home and I saw deer tracks in the dirt when I took the painting to the pit for a photo. |

The school year winds down and I am left lurching towards nebulous ideas/projects that might help me to feel productive. It's so easy to lose momentum. To be distracted by life's mundane tasks and responsibilities. |

Justin's Freaky Face
collage
(entered by Anthony Gonzalez)
Justin is in the second grade. When I peered over his shoulder and saw this collaged face I felt it needed to be put out there - so here it is. My students, especially the so very unselfconscious younger ones, are always reminding me through their work and actions what it means to be authentic.

Off on a New Adventure
digital video
I'm in my new studio space looking at the sunlight on the floor that I covered in cardboard. My mind alternates between thinking about Peter's TransAction concept and wondering what this space holds for me. It is pleasing to think of both. Both seem so positive and hopeful. The possibilities are exciting. |

Harold [Wallin] sent me three of these photos from a subway ad because they had my name on them. Now that he's in Alaska I'm hoping this qualifies as Peter's TransActions interchange.

Found Poem, Moscow Airport
photograph
What struck me about this little composition was it's specificity with regard to articles and actions. Language is a powerful lens on our perception, and we're usually completely oblivious. Here is an absurd little ditty which tickles the funny bone by turning our tight, boring little ways of expressing and experiencing banal subjects upside down. In Russian it sounds like putting on airs (it's just carrots and cucumbers, for god's sake!). In English it becomes pure Duchamp. |

Nesting
watercolor on Arches Cold Press
On my mind right now is the incredibly high rate at which my friends and family have/had that dreaded 'cancer' disease. I wonder why? I think it might be in the water.

mixed media
On my mind right now: Home. What it means to have a home, create a home, allow oneself a home. Home. Home in oneself, one’s body, one’s place. Home. The luxury of home. The privilege of home. The beauty of home. Home. Home on the run, in tents, in camps, home. To have and to hold when others do not: home. Home on this planet, this earth. Home. The center stretching out. Home. The beginning and end. Home. Inside and outside home. May all have home.

flying home
photograph
The most important thing on my mind right now -- besides landing safely at JFK --is the compositional possibilities of what's out the window, when I can see anything past the wing (I'm always getting the wing seat lately). Luckily the wing offers its own share of compositional possibilities. |
