I began this blog at the beginning of 2010 as a kind of thinkdump for the process of being an artist and how it differs radically from my intentions, how domestic reality constantly interferes with the creative. In writing this blog I am trying to embrace these interstitial episodes as being the creative.

Endgame (1957)

Nell: Nothing is funnier than unhappiness.
Nagg: Oh?
Nell: Yes, yes, it's the most comical thing in the world. And we laugh, we laugh, with a will, in the beginning. But it's always the same thing. Yes, it's like the funny story we have heard too often, we still find it funny, but we don't laugh any more.

drawing

the world surely has enough life studies.
the ability to draw was, in the first instant, the portal to being an artist, a recognition of the ability to see what's there.
but a lifetime and an art degree and immersion in the theoretical have pushed this towards seeing what is not there ...
so drawing in whatever form is about re-connecting
