totally in limbeaux. i wake with the best laid plans to do menial tasks/chores, but i don't give good menial. which is why, with the 1st coffee/smoke/ before even checking emails, i begin working on drawings, which gobbles the whole day and drags me into the next. Photoshop and gimp are too seductive; and creativity is my drug as well as therapy. been working from 'wake up time' [usually 3PM- unless phone calls wake me earlier- grrrrrr] until 5 or 6AM every day/night/day- which is taking a toll... BUT these 'art' creative spurts run for only so long, then i segue into musica manic mode which runs a while, then segues into photo mode or whatever. been waking and writing lyrics- or did for 3 or 4 days- in an old notebook [wont steal that] sitting at the kitchen table, staring through the iron bars as the sun sets over my forest. then move to the black hole, enter photoshop/gimp and am in suspended animation til dawn. look at the clock and freak. not because i have to go to bed, or HAVE to do anything, but somewhere some sense of guilt "oh my god, you're staying up till dawn!" kicks in and i turn on my cd of gregorian chants or liturgies, crawl in bed with my kitties, pray and drift into the void, where the dreams are about as bizarre as my drawings... then, repeat ad infinitum... below some recent photoshop/gimp drawings:

about this blog

this blog is where i post some of my drawings, paintings, collages, mixed media, photomontage, scans, videos, etc.- all of which i have been doing for as long as i can remember.

i began painting and making collage in the 60s; but even as a child i was always drawing/painting. i've continued doing both 'off and on' [more off than on] since.

i have periods where i'll get into art projects and do them until they run their course; but, as with my photography, i don't really have as much time as i'd like to have to devote to art.

i started doing a lot of brush and ink 'drawings', and pen and ink drawings in the 80s- [none of which have been scanned yet]- i might just photograph them, as they are too big to scan.

i didn't do collage for a long time, but began again in the early 90s in new orleans. i didn't do many there, but rather 'primed the pump' to begin to do them again. i was mostly doing abstract images, with a lot of torn color paper. when i'd leave and go on the road to work for long periods of time, i began doing them daily-as a form of entertainment, as something to fill time before and after shows. i began doing a lot of collages from xeroxed images i'd scan at local libraries, when i was working in towns for weeks... but i got tired of the only b&w images... so i'd do pen and ink drawings in between.

when i got to Europe in the early 90s i was staying a month in Basel- at a hotel on the Rhine. again i began doing collage as a means of entertainment [i was also making a lot of fotos]. i began using bits & pieces of found paper, discarded magazines, ripping paper off posters and billboards, using scotch tape as well as glue-sticks.

i began using small books to do the collages in, as they were easier to transport.
i did a lot of different series when i was spending long periods in brussels, berlin, rotterdam, den haag, and switzerland. some have been scanned and i will post some when i run across them.

most of the paintings i've posted on this site [shot w/a polaroid camera] are the smaller ones. in new orleans i had one big room in my house that i used only for painting- [and one as a darkroom]- i'd paint on 6 foot pieces of plywood, or big pieces of wood. i left most of those in storage buildings or outside [covered] until they ruined- so... some i burned- [i should have photographed them as they burned!] and some are still in my shed.

influenced by dada, german expressionism, primitive art, cocteau, picasso and art brut [outsider art]- i'm continuously discovering and being inspired by little known or unknown [by me and many] artists, thanks to great tv documentaries i see when i am in europe. always a new window/door opens...
