Tweet On Tuesday the Critter and I strolled to Roxbury Park and then to lunch with The Chef. On the way, we saw these cars being washed. I’m sure The Husband will want me to say what type of cars they are, and I will as soon as he gets home, but aren’t they tres […]
Tweet God I’ve known this guy forever! We went to the same elementary school, even – and I can remember the first time he visited me in the dorm at Millsaps College, bearing gifts of Burger King and Virginia Slims. We were thespians and members of the Alpha Psi Omega, the Theatre Honorary. I was […]
Tweet …that there is not a line a block long at Sprinkles, the cupcake factory that has captured and addicted millions. In spite of the fact that I live a mere five minute walk from there, I never go, because I truly could bake cupcakes in the amount of time it would take to stand […]
Tweet …to a font, other than my beloved copperplate gothic and my Engravers MT. It has always pleased me that my my business card could be from a venerable law firm, were it not for the one word design. The two fonts used together are timeless, classic, and promote those ideals in my designs. Helvetica […]
Tweet I saw my first live concert when I was in third grade – Elvis at the Jackson Coliseum. Even a third grader knows Elvis is hot. Then in junior high I would become a concert fiend – KISS, James Taylor, Gino Vanelli, Dan Fogelberg, Rush, Yes, Journey(twice), Billy Joel, Jimmy Buffet, Prince, REM, The […]
Tweet When I was expecting the Critter, I was haunted by the voice of Louise Nevelson in a documentary I saw in design school. I can’t quote her, but she was talking about having children when you’re “on this search” for art and that it’s unkind to put children in in the position of coping […]
Tweet …that this would be approved so soon. So there goes the neighborhood, until the three year construction period is over, starting with demo in June. I SO dread the dust and wondering what is in the particulate. I suppose the City Council made the best deal for the city that they could, and my […]
Tweet It occurred to me as I sat on the terrace enjoying a glorious California morning the odd trivia that led to the painting currently housed a la John Saladino in my direct line of vision. The original muse for the painting was a staircase that led to a garage apartment on Charleville. I walk(ed) […]
Tweet It was not really fair to get so excited about Easter and then not spill the beans about what happened around here. All the cards with the critter’s adorable photo went in the mail, the Grandmother arrived from Mississippi without unpleasant travel events, bringing along “her baby’s” handpainted Easter basket and bunny. My bunny […]
Tweet I haven’t posted in so long! It’s not that I haven’t been collecting a bevy of quirky information that I have experienced lately. As a designer and artist I am always seeing the design in things and I have quite a few subjects to share. There’s Easter, construction at the Peninsula, new music and […]
