We rented the “Carpet Cowboys” documentary from @beyondvideo.bsky.social because they had a brightly colored new carpet at the front door and I was curious about the decor update. Highly recommend a watch. Some outstandingly absurd characters and a reasonably dark view of the “American Dream.”

Greatly enjoyed listening to Se Jong Cho talk at Creative Mornings Baltimore today. She is an equally brilliant scientist and artist and she is making the world a better place.

I am making some little nighttime landscape drawings to do a small edition-ed series. And I am back to working on my old favorite paper, Rives BFK. 🖤

Working on another memory drawing and this time combining imagery with text. “I arrived back at the apartment just in time to see a lightning storm illuminating the clouds behind the mountain range across town. North Adams, Massachusetts”

I went from extreme hunger to extreme fullness and somewhere in there I had to be at perfect satiation but I just powered right past it without notice.

I think this is one of the best drawings I have ever made. It just sold and before taking it to the framer I made a little video for posterity. Photos never do me justice.

Pulling together a new series of work that is self-portraits done through shadow or reflection. I am there in the picture but also not really, which is how I feel in my body sometimes. Having dealt with migraines and endometriosis for the last few years I sometimes feel like a shell of a person. 🖤

Finally finished making these mezzotint plates for my friend’s small run press. Only took me a year. Feeling absurdly accomplished for having finally completed them. Can’t wait to see them printed!
