All too easily, a moment slips by. And before we know it, we’ve missed the opportunity to do something, or missed the chance to communicate what we meant to say. If someone is amazing in your life, tell them. Now. Because we never know when the purple haze will swallow up the moment. And asContinue reading “The Art Of Procrastination”

Be Kind. https://www.thehotline.org/ October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. #every1knowssome1 #domesticviolenceawarenessmonth #dvam2021 #art #procrastination #bostonart #instagram #technygalleriesContinue reading “Art For Social Change.

Art of The Smile
Growing up, people didn’t like to smile in photographs. They just stared into the camera. Today, as I flip through the photo album of my memory, I’m happy that I can remember some spontaneous times, when people weren’t conscientious about the camera and weren’t so deadpan serious. Times when they let their guard down andContinue reading “Art of The Smile”
Art Arrival. On Time
Riding the subway. Going fast and still arriving late. Growing up, we went everywhere together. You wouldn’t know that my family didn’t own a car or that my mother couldn’t drive. Rocking and rattling along and yelling to be heard over the sound of metal wheels flying along steel tracks, defying gravity! *I enjoyed paintingContinue reading “Art Arrival. On Time”
Hopeful Art
Sometimes women leave. It isn’t always planned. Some pass away. Others make career moves. Some are post-partum & challenged. And some, some women just hang up their red dress and leave. That’s when a dad becomes more than a man. He’s strong, he’s resilient and he’s present. So he cooks like mommy use to do.Continue reading “Hopeful Art”

Yes, Art Can Make Us Smile
Hot Damn! It’s happening, tomorrow my solo exhibition will be installed on Billboard Hope!!! When I was a kid, I used to walk past this billboard in Boston’s historical John Elliot Square, almost every day. Back then the ad space was used to sell negatives, like cigarettes and alcohol. And as you might imagine, theyContinue reading “Yes, Art Can Make Us Smile”
Art & My Three Sons
I’ve no interest in putting people into pigeon holes. Aside from the obvious, that is they don’t fit, it’s also extremely boring. People are people and maybe it really is as simple as that.
Paint Positive
I woke up to this headline and smiled. That’s what it does. And that’s the response I want to illicit when people see my art. Even if it’s only a little smile. After a pandemic the goal should be simply to co-exist, to get along and every once in a while to smile. When IContinue reading “Paint Positive”
The Outsider Artist Within
This morning I received news of Outsider Art, not labeling me as such, but nonetheless bringing attention to the fact that I haven’t attended art school. (Full disclosure, I don’t have an MBA, no MFA and I haven’t spent hours studying the human form or still life.) “Outsider Art” is defined on Wikipedia as “OutsiderContinue reading “The Outsider Artist Within”
