Finally got in to do some measuring.

Time now to make some scale objects of furniture that will be moved. The bottom of the image faces North. The colored squares indicate electrical outlets.

It's been a while I know but I'm back making work again. I have a new show coming up in May with Marjorie Grigonis, MARKSTWOMAKE. The show will include a few older drawings that haven't been shown before and a series of new drawings. This is the first layer on some of the new work.

This is a new series of posts documenting my process of creating a new studio. The space will serve as a personal art studio. Heavybubble HQ and gallery space. This requires some careful thought. Gathering requirements, physical attributes and needs; all contribute to a successful outcome.

Excited to have another drawing included in Art Friday, March 20.

Ok. Soon I will go crazy if I don't take a trip to friend Peter Fraterdeus' printshop. Been talking about making letterpress prints of Egyptian Waters for months now. Time to stop talking and head out there on a ROAD TRIP. Will be taking sheets of Rives BFK but will look at printing on some handcrafted sheets too.

I know that you probably don't believe it but my heavybubble website is finally launched. I just couldn't stand it anymore when people asked me about my site. It was no longer amusing.

The site is actually very small right now. I need to get some work photographed. More will come.

Getting work photographed professionally is an adventure. I have a very kind friend that is going to do this for me. Yes, I will give him a nice gift. It is essential that I determine how I will mount some of my larger drawings, drawings on vellum and synthetic paper.

Ok. No more bobbing on and off again for moving the studio. I will be making art in the same place until July. So, I can settle in and make work while thinking about where I will be in the summer before going to the Adirondacks for the annual September mountain pilgrimage.

Ok, I'm embracing the chaos and our virtually useless economy. I just want to make some art. It looks as though I may be moving from my currently only half unpacked studio,

Economics are tossing my studio about like half a cork in a turbulent ocean. Everything is up in the air and I'm unsure of where I will land. I'm packing again. In the meantime I try to sketch and work on some installation ideas and large scale work. I hope I will be able to make some art soon.
