Learning
I found a design book. My daughter and I did a few exercises thinking about shapes and shape manipulation.
I love her
I found this amazing lady on youtube. Her name is Dona Angela and her channel is “Por Mi Rancho a Tu Cocina”
After watching the first short video, I couldn’t look away. I just love people who share information. She uses her heart and I always find that inspiring.
Musicians
I have been playing music all my life. Since 1996 I have been a working Jazz drummer in New Orleans. I often find inspiration on the bandstand. I am inspired by the music, itself, the chemistry in the band and the friendships I have made.
Image to the left is obviously Louis Armstrong. In the middle there is perhaps lesser known group of some of my favorite players in town; The Gentilly Stompers. lead by Catie Rogers. The last one is my buddy Jason.
Painting Houses
This summer I spent some time painting houses blue and painting blue houses.
Drawing
I have been trying to get a few pencil sketches in here and there. The one on the right is my fishing buddy. Don’t worry, I didn’t do this while on the boat. The middle picture is a guy I saw on Bayou St. John racing sailboats. The last one is a small footbridge at city park.
I am constantly working on trying to improve my ability to draw. This is the basis of being able to make a good painting.
