  • Unappreciated

    We’ve a houseguest for the next several days so I bleached the bathroom good and he in turn gave me shortbread cookies from a bakery in NY that I love. I like the personality that old buildings have, but one of the drawbacks of living in a 90 year old apartment building is the bathroom’s…

  • The First Veil

    The First Veil

    The First Veil Digital painting 2007 Lightbox enlargement I’ve wanted to get back to working on a Women of Myth series, having already done Salome and Eve, and this is in that direction, influenced by memories of foreign movies of the 60s through the early 80s I’d seen when cinema screens were still large and…

  • Vampires Should Not Eat The Camera!

    With Dubai becoming the new Houston and citizens being so conveniently cut off from Medicaid and all the other assorted horrors in the world, I thought some more humor wouldn’t be a bad thing. In other words, yes I did indeed think the previous post and its home movie to be humorous. And this movie…

  • That Almost Hurt Me

    Just plain silliness from this past summer/autumn. H.o.p. was having me film him jump off the dresser. I ended up in the way. I can’t believe I’m putting this up on Youtube.

  • Wow, H.o.p. combines art and activism (and stands to get his feelings hurt)

  • Promoing H.o.p.’s blog and his "Haunt of the House of Death!" audio

    Feb raced by in the way that March is now doing. I suppose I got something done other than bookshelves. Worked on the book some. Got up H.o.p.’s own blog which is good for a couple of reasons. One, it’s all his own words, what he wants to blog about, and at his own speed.…
