Old Work

By | Painting | No Comments

I skipped drawing this week to make a bunch of oatmeal bowls.  I’ve started a new website called myoatmealbowl.com, and I don’t have any ware to sell.  I’m expecting to put a few items up for sale soon and maybe in a couple of weeks or a month I’ll have some regular items available.  If you check out the website, please take the short questionaire on the “contact” page.  In the meantime here are a few pictures I photographed recently of some drawings from years gone by.  Both of these are Conti drawings on paper, actually cropped

down from full figure drawings.  The painting below is of my VW Van that I used as my rolling studio apartment in in the late seventies.  The van was named ‘Faith’ and it seemed sometimes that faith was all that kept it rolling.  But keep on rolling it did until a tired and slightly

intoxicated bar waitress cut across the parking lot at a diagonal on a foggy night after the disco had closed and crashed into me. And spilled my drink, I might add.  It was technically totalled but I managed to keep it rolling for a few months more till I left for San Francisco.  I sold the van to a friend and put the engine in a little red VW beetle and headed west.  Which reminds me…here’s a picture of San Franciso from El Cerrito.
