BlueCanvas.com

Saturday, April 4th, 2009

Blue Canvas is an online art community that I just discovered. Don’t be fooled by the cheezy web design, there are some top notch artists on the site. In fact, it’s got nice international representation.  Out of 10 artists I viewed only 1 was from the US.

Yes, yes, I added myself (and my paintings) to their ranks. You can view my gallery HERE if you want to.

… on a sidenote: I want to be in a band called : ITALIC DRAGON

Ukulele Cabaret – Valentine’s Day style

Saturday, February 14th, 2009

I’m gonna go join the rest of the freaks in the ukulele circuit and play some tunes tonight. Thankfully, I’ve got a lot of songs on the chosen theme. Come if you get a chance.

Also check out this wonderful (free) screensaver:

vernacular photography

Thursday, February 15th, 2007

Lately I’ve been really into vernacular photography… basically amateur / found photography. there are several blogs on the subject. My favorite is this site:

Anonymity & Voyeurism…
These photos are often amazingly beautiful and shockingly honest.

I love technology, but, I have an aching fear that in 30 years, we won’t be able to go to a random antique store and pilfer through old photos. Instead, hard drives will crash, discs will be scratched, printer ink will smudge, and years will be lost…

Our memories are fragile. Take photos will film.
