At least I got one fan in this dirty old city 😉

Had a last minute cancelled flight Maine to Newark, so I tried #UnitedAirlines online booking with miles. Kept thwarting me. Called and the gentleman in India insisted my best shot was for $1,000 and a ton of miles. Book now because this might be the last seat. Better deal thru Expedia, but still🙄

I try to understand how this can be our sweet girl’s go-to position for comfort napping. Can anyone offer an insight?

Keep an eye out for Recluse. Young Henry Chaisson is a director to watch.

May not have a clear sky for the full moon tonight, but last night was pretty sweet:)

Today’s charcoal/gesso sketches. Two remarkable Brits I was lucky enough to meet a lifetime or two ago. I won’t drop names (they might land on a toe or two:)

Shadow selfie in the center of the city in the middle of the night. Action! #NYC

Precisely what I am doing. Glanced over my shoulder to see if there was a surveillance camera!😳 To answer, not from streaming I’m afraid… but years ago from video rental and sales, I got a big check for Volunteers, because Tom Hanks had just hit Big with Big and they went in search of earlier work:)

For anyone who might be curious about how much actors can rake in via residual checks… May this pink page paint you green with envy:).

Thou art forgiven. He’s a touch more inscrutable methinks. Trying to get the nuances in here.

Continue to add layers to this archetypal expression of conscience manifested by the guy responsible for unconscionable behavior.

I never throw away onion or garlic skins or tops n’ tips or so many other peels and things that used to go straight into the compost. Now they only get after I’ve cooked every living flavor and nutrient out of em. Use that broth for rice or pasta or whatever ails ya!

Ol’ Chief Justice, why so sad? Or is this just performative remorse? I had you pegged for a better man than this, I really did. You put on a convincing show, relative to some of your cohorts.

Two drawings I did today, of two friends from Maine, who I introduced to each other on Friday. The creative community continues to grow. I love it up here.

My daughter Rowan, about ten years ago, demonstrating natural acting talent, picking up instinctively, the atmosphere of the shot. A very Stephen King moment in Maine:)

Always interested in layers of time weighing in on the faces I paint or sculpt.

Planning to sculpt Abe out of a big chunk of oak this spring/summer. As soon as the barn and frozen shoulder thaws a bit. Meanwhile these studies help keep me focused on how strong and good humans are capable of being.

A sitcom pilot that was a little too cutting edge for the 80s. But such entertaining memories of palling around with Frank, jetting off to lunch in his rent-a-Mercedes convertible as he played Patti Lupone tapes for me and I played the Pogues for him:)

Is this supposed to make people think “Oh Wow. Someone Gets Me”, as opposed to being totally creeped out?

Part of a new series called… The Tech Bros? The New Monarchy? The Oligarchs? 🤷‍♂️

Is there a Doctor in the house??

Can someone photoshop one of those old school doctor’s headband with the circular mirror on it?

Yesterday our unbelievably sweet little girl turned the epically profound age of sixteen, with, I am overjoyed to report, her sweetness still intact! We have raised her, but she comes from the land of milk and honey. Rowan Amara Berkeley, we are so proud of you, may you stay forever kind. ❤️💙🌹

Snow kept at it all day. So quietly captivating. Hope this puts you to sleep if you’re still awake:).

Happy Black History Month sounds oxymoronic, but if you follow Martin Luther King’s gaze and words of wisdom, it will take you there. I spent the month building up layers on this large canvas in a meditation on his courage, devotion and determination to Overcome 🙌🙏🙌

Want to send a little thank you and a prayer up for the Reverend Jesse Jackson. Seeing him speak at the First AME Church in South Central the Sunday after the LA riots began, was an out of body experience. He about raised the roof in there and let the healing begin. 🙌🙏🙌 Rev Jackson Testified

I honestly think that pejorative and condescension thwart communication. Speaking the way you do may make you feel superior, but it hasn’t brought any tangible insight or reference from which I might benefit.

Many, wiser than I have made it. We who lived through Reagan watched the rise of Fox getting away with the small print disclaimer re:‘opinions’ which allowed it to have News in the name, Fox News. Not clear on why this irks you.

And, an AG of the DOJ smirks smugly while protecting the child rapists in power. In front of the cameras and women who were raped as children. It’s all too vile for the brain to handle.

How has the world turned upside down so quickly, that the United States Attorney General is this comic book villain? Protecting a horror film villain? How have we allowed ourselves to fall under the influence of a group so depraved?

Fragment from my attempt at MLK. Keeping an eye on his eye, keeping an eye on us… grounds me. Happy Black History Month (I am forever grateful to have grown up under his influence) 🙏🙏🏽

Update on my Jack Smith portrait. His face continues to speak volumes (as did his presence before the House Judiciary Committee).

Many layers of underpainting in and still his likeness eludes me. Can’t seem to find his moral, Intellectual likeness these days either.
