I had a gig for a couple of years as a purchasing agent for a vintage boutique in Washington, DC. The items in this drawing document some of the stuff that flowed through my hands from auction to shop.

Artemis II finally launched yesterday after a series of delays. I made this six weeks ago wondering what a great America might look like. Yesterday Iran's 'authoritarian' government wrote an open letter to the American people saying they don't hold us responsible for what our government is doing to them. While our 'free' government threatens their people with the very weapon we went to war to keep from them.

Made this during Trump's first term. Felt relevant to dust off while the billionaires are still pretending to pick sides.

This skeleton is made almost entirely from by-products: a pesto jar, food packaging, corks, twine, chopsticks, mayonnaise caps, guitar strings…
The rose he’s surfing I found on an evening stroll.

Lately I’ve been working on monograms from some old books I found. This one is a cipher-style monogram of a ‘Krimson Queen’ hoya in bloom, with the moth that pollinates its flowers at night.

Dolphin & Anchor drawing for my Festina Lente study on Constraint.
I flipped the dolphin so he was breaching while holding and moving against the anchor. The waves are a Greek motif pulling west, while the clouds are pushing east.
Next month will be the Snail Shell & Rabbit.

This month we're exploring the Dolphin & Anchor image adopted by Aldus Manutius for the Aldine Press during the Italian Renaissance. Part one of six.
