Artist, musician, dancer, database designer, left wing but consider "woke" to be an arrogant term lacking in the empathy it purports to portray. My pronouns are “He who shall not be ignored” and “Not HIM again".
Gouache done plein air almost three years ago that I decided to touch up.

Just for tomorrow, instead of repeating a story you’ve told multiple times, to multiple people, ask another person about themself

Something I did last year. I now see that I need to hang where I can view it from a distance instead of where I have it hanging now. This is just a documentation photo. This is just painted from reflex. No conscious meaning.

Fooling around with extremely shallow depth of field. No effects or doctoring.

Untitled. Also done with Procreate Pocket.

Me doing my other thang. Doesn’t hurt that the photo shaves 20 years off my perceived age.

Looking for some effective inexpensive or free video lessons on figure drawing or portraiture. I was able to get to this point tonight in a non-teaching figure drawing class. Proportions not quite right, but way better than my first ones of the evening. Recommendations welcome.

My favorite from the Mary Cassatt exhibition today. Last day. Legion of honor sf.

Went part way up a hill today to paint, only to discover I had forgotten my paints at home. So only a photo to show. Black Diamond Mines Preserve by Antioch.

From a collage of abstract ink paintings. Actually one large painting, ripped up, then pieces layered together.

My best abstract expressionist attempt to date. Resulted in a lot of emotional tumult when I uncovered something repressed.

A collage from somewhere between my unconscious and my conscious mind. Had no idea or plans, just reacting to magazine pages In front of me. Went to the Berkeley Art Museum, and they have an ongoing “art lab” where they put materials out for people to play. Most of the other artists were preschool.

I believe I will base my next pastel on this photo I took before dawn next to Alamo Square in San Francisco.

My latest piece, and my second pastel.
