some pix from NY

hello again!

hope your class time with chris s. went well. he's a good guy.

we're having a good time here in NYC. at the CAA conference i went to an interesting session on motion graphics, i may come back with some funky new projects for us.

but i thought i'd toss some pix your way. today we were in chelsea and stopped by Printed Matter, a cool little bookstore that specializes in unique artist's books - books made by artists, as works of art in themselves. they've carried my flipbooks since 1998, and i had never been there, so i had to visit! (although i haven't kept them very well stocked as of late).








and here are some pix from yesterday's trip to the Metropolitan Museum - the big old place with all the Old Stuff.

my mary in front of james rosenquist's "gift-wrapped dolls" - oil on canvas














one of my favorite sculptures by rodin




i've always loved trompe l'oeil painting; i think it's the built-in humor as well as the amazing craft involved. this is one by john haberle (1856-1933), called "A Bachelor's Drawer." the detail is stunning, down to the clipped newspaper articles about the artwork itself.






and i just liked medea and her foot.
