The Sketchbook Project: Front Cover

Dear Visitor
Thank you for visiting my blog and my sincere apologies.
 Unfortunately due to the continued infringement, mining and exploitation of my images by individuals, spammers and companies I can no longer show my images on this site.
 The images that remain will be partially obscured.



The theme of the Art House Sketchbook Project is "everyone we know"
Since the eyes are the windows to the soul
I thought it fitting to paint my eye

MadSilence has this really cool snow effect on their blog (I hope they don't me borrowing the idea). Mine isn't as good, but I think still fun :)

WOW!
Someone crashed into the street sign on the corner of Dayton and Corry street that has our knit graffiti on it. Nancy and I figured we would have to do some new knitting for it when the new pole went up. Well, I don't know which village crew did this, but bless their hearts. They actually slid the knitting off the destroyed pole and put it onto the new pole.
Thank You

That's pretty cool. In my first year at art school we had a project that was about creative process. We blindly threw a rock onto a map of the city (vancouver) and where it landed we had to install some permanent art. Mine landed on a corner where there was a fountain, others in children's playgrounds, malls, ocean. Nothing was off limit and you didn't get any re-throws. Much of the art work was stolen and or damaged, including mine. So for some one to recognize your significant contribution and to replace it shows much about those individuals that found it and appreciate it and your city.

That's fantastic that they replaced your art! Wow, it sounds like you live in another world!

I like your eye on your sketch book. I look forward to seeing what you do inside it. :)

I guess some civil servants have good taste in art. They could have realized they had artistic gold in their hands and sold the work on ebay, instead they acted as art conservation workers. A fine use of their time.

I really like the community art idea - what a great way of getting people involved. I'm wondering if I could do something like this in Alicante. Lots of food for thought.

How cool that they relocated your knitting! Perhaps there's hope for humanity, after all. Love the cover sketch, as well. For a while I was totally into drawing eyes, myself & I even painted a couple of surreal ones recently.
