December 25th.

I am working on a new series of paintings, and for a little bit longer, will not tell what it is. There are 8 paintings.
Steve and Josh sent me a logo for Alterrealism, and I like it a lot. I also noticed, that the term is beginning to pop up on other artist’s web sites….. I better speed my our 3 – year in a making project. So often people come up with a similar ideas at the same time….

Holidays

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

Good news is , my friend Majka got a clean bill of health. She does not need to do chemotherapy.
Hip hip hurrrah!. Now, get back to painting Majka! No excuses.
I sent a Holiday card with a painting that I re – worked this summer. I got some beautiful comments. Here is one, from Paul Pauper of Form / Space Atelier in Seattle.


Your painting reminds me of a silent film by Jean Renoir, 1927 : Charleston

Parade (Sur un air de charleston). An inexplicable moment comes in the film

when these winged heads are talking on the telephone to a charleston dancer

and a blackface explorer. As I said, inexplicable. But that was the Jazz

Age and everyone was soused to the gills on bathtub gin. I commend your

thoroughly original painting. Thought-provoking.
