Been very lazy about the blog – but busy in the studio.
Mixing paint…
And checking out my new view…
Ideat, a culture magazine based in France, sent a journalist and photographer to report on Seattle. Somehow they ended up ay my studio after First Thursday. Actually, Deborah Paine was their tour guide that evening and we work together at the City of Seattle.
Tod Gangler, Seattle based photographer, was our translator. Jean Michel is writing the piece, and Jean-Claude was the photographer. They were in the midst of an intense week of experiencing Seattle. They changed hotels every day, ate out every meal, had tours of cultural destinations, and had about an hour of free time a day. Sounds grueling.
We had planned to have a few beers in the studio and go out for Chinese, but ended up just hanging out. I think they were relieved not to have to go out for dinner. It was a fun evening. I look forward to seeing the spread. Until then, “Vive la France!”
In January Rebecca and I got to visit briefly with Marc Dombrosky and Shannon Eakins at Marc’s show at Platform. My post about “Neverland” here. They have relocated to Las Vegas while Shannon pursues her MFA. We miss them.
Marc recently sent me a gift of one of his lovely embroidered pieces. Thanks Marc! I have it in the studio beside a pair of Marc and Shannon’s “Tacoma Drinkers.” These are leather beer holsters that attach to your belt loops for two fisted drinking.
Plus we have this:
We hope to visit them in Vegas soon.
My Latest doorstep offering:
I think this was the studio doorbell, but I’m not sure:
And finally, some work gets done:
Here’s one of the 5 x 7″ pieces from my Telephone Room show. You can find 8 more on my Small Work 2009 page.
Yet another strange offering on my doorstep.
Lacoste? Naked coffee? Style on skin? WTF?
Meanwhile, from inside the studio, a new small painting:
