Movie Stills from my Narrative

Rainbow at the Junction under Cirrus.
My relentless obsession documenting the number 3 which is the lucky prime in Math Theory.
For my funny Valentine.

The Rainbow/Prism Gallery

My crystal display in the south facing living room window shoots crystals throughout our house 42 feet back into our bedroom.

Making Things out of other Things

I am challenged by materials. It's my primary motivation.
I can find something in an alley and instantly see it in a finished project.
I don't call this imagination, it's too immediate. It's not even a process. I can see it transported into a beautiful thing.
maybe it's alchemy.
I used to design jewelry and developed a business with three sales reps. My jewelry was in all midwest and southwest galleries and museum gift shops including SLAM, The Walker Museum, and The Art Institute of Chicago.
I stopped designing jewlery when the internet flattened the market and started designing other things: clothing, belts, curtains, hats, etc.
Here's another belt that I made.

I have one of his Space Needle Lamps and so should you.

It's His Birthday

Pist turned 50 yesterday. It was a sunny morning for a crisp drive to Beaumont Antire. I was treated to a flawless performance of Chopin's etude in G# minor op.25 no.6.
I was also presented with a freshly cut gate key (hahahaha)
Pist was wearing a long silver ring.
What is that, I had asked.
Armor.
What happened to the rest of it, I asked.
Women.

I could hear my laughter echo through the Valley of Sighs.
It looks like this.

Cloud Spotting

Cumulus and altocumulus are my current favorites. Three views of the same cloud.

Bakelite and Moonglow Lucite

The delightful life of a Collector. This is my income. Treasure hunting, finding it and reselling it. In the interim I wear it.

The Tea House and The Yard

Dear Boi

Old photos of poor Dear Boi who was my constant companion until she was dropped so many times her antlers broke.
