    H.o.p. Overlooking a Maze at the High Museum of Art

    H.o.p. Overlooking a Maze at the High Museum of Art, 2008 View On White I should have said to her, “Can I take some shots of you as you survey the art?” One day I would like to take a box to the museum and and have museum goers stand on it while I take…

  • H.o.p. asks, "What are they doing advertising things that hurt the earth at a place that’s supposed to help the earth?"

    From when he was knee-high, I’ve been telling H.o.p. about ads. What ads want from you. What they want to sell you. I tell him about the relationship between ads and some of the websites he visits. Like Neopets. I ever remind him that those sites want something from him, which is all the time…

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

    Well, this is interesting. Tonight for some reason H.o.p. kept wanting to see an old post I had done on the threat of funding being pulled from PBS and NPR. I’d done a little pic to go with it representing Oscar and Elmo as homeless characters. That post was over a year ago and I…

  • The 5th day was H.o.p.’s early birthday party

    The 5th day was H.o.p.’s early 9th birthday party, thrown for him by his grandparents. He loved it. We had a lazy, easy time batting balloons around. He carried one last balloon with him all the way to Yellow Horse, on our way home, when the wind grabbed it out of the car and whisked…

  • H.o.p. instructs me on art and I give just a tad return instruction

    Every little budding artist is eventually struck by realism, at least for a period of time. H.o.p. tonight was looking at a drawing of two Egyptian women embracing, an older and a younger woman, in a story of his, and he was struck by the realism of the illustration. He decided to tell me about…

  • H.o.p.’s New Film Short, “Phobia”

    H.o.p.’s New Film Short, “Phobia”

    Inspired by Psycho (which he has yet to see in full) and silent films he was watching over the weekend, Aaron finished another film yesterday. All shot on his iPhone–he directed his dad on how to shoot him, and enlisted a friend, George, to put in a cameo. He put it together in iMovie and…

    A Particularly Photogenic Bat (4 views)

    View On White View On White View On White View On White I’ve been distracted, so H.o.p. pulled out the ghosts and bats and cobwebs and plastic pumpkin lantern and green eye lights and pulled me away from the computer and purely at his behest we decorated, spreading cobwebs across the doors like fragile, moon…

  • H.o.p.’s 2011 DragonCon Costume

    H.o.p.’s 2011 DragonCon Costume

    H.o.p.’s 2011 Dragoncon Costume View On Black Yes, it may look like a cape/cloak and a felt top hat, but to H.o.p.’s mind, even at thirteen, it is so much more, and he spent at least a couple of months contemplating and planning his outfit, abandoning here and there an elaboration which he realized he…

  • Party

    Party

    Just a record of H.o.p. having a blast at a party Friday night. Chowing down on chips here before he really got going. One thing he isn’t is shy. He loves parties. Loves entertaining people with stories and jokes. Loves people. (One thing I like about Hipstamatic and Lo-mob is a feel fairly comfortable with…

  • Some of H.o.p.’s Sculptures

    H.o.p. is expressing an interest in his blog again. We’ve been putting his creations up there but I thought I’d post several pics here today. Ultra Metal Sonic Nack the Weasel The Dark Dragon It was impossible to get a good angle on the Dark Dragon, which was too bad as it’s fun with lots…

  • H.o.p. is Published

    H.o.p. is ogling the new Ill CD–a band which he loves, which makes it even more exciting and special to him that they used for the cover art an old drawing of H.o.p.’s that was down on the studio wall. “I’m too surprised to even speak. My own art work on the cover of Ill!”…
