Machu Picchu. 10 years ago Ten years ago my three sisters (along with several friends) and I took a trip to Peru. Expertly planned, the trip started in Cusco and then had us hiking into Machu Picchu over the mountaintops, taking the ancient Inca Trail into one of the world’s most exquisite spots. It was […]

Brooklyn Workshop Gallery Opening, June 26
Still riding high after a great weekend and art opening in Brooklyn. Thank you to Martine Bisagni and Amani Ansari for their Herculean effort to pull off a great event. More pictures coming* (I was too busy talking to take any during the opening to take my own) but here are a few of the […]

Brooklyn Workshop Gallery curator Martine Bisagni in my studio choosing work for the show that opens this weekend. I’m in New York for the opening of my show in Brooklyn this weekend. I’ll be back online on Monday.
Upcoming Show at Brooklyn Workshop Gallery
This is a heads up about my upcoming exhibit opening in Brooklyn on Saturday June 26. I am very excited to be showing (mostly) new paintings along with the stunning sculptures of Rina Peleg.

Taking a Break
One of the many lakes near Keswick I’m in the Lake District in England for 10 days. I’ll be back online after November 22nd.
Flow as a State of Being
Lava flowing into the sea on the Big Island, Hawaii, 1999 My friend Andrew’s weekly Sunday epistles have had a thread running through them over the last few weeks that speaks directly to my current state of mind. Maybe it is just a stage in the growing older business. I have come to think of […]
Paradisio
Diamond light . . “[He] sang beyond the genius of the sea” . . Foam painting waves . . Rough water on Monday/Yom Kippur, following a storm at sea . . There’s no better balm than a long stretch of beach, the angled light of late September, a weekend in a house overlooking the sea, […]
