2011-09-16T13:25:00.000-04:00

Last night Frank and I experienced Jenny Saville's body of work entitled:"Continuum." Compelling to say the least. The opening reception was held at the Gagosian Gallery on Madison Avenue in Chelsea. It was her first show in New York since "Migrants" in 2003. Prior to that she hadn't displayed her work since 1999 at the same location. Saville's strokes are both bold and demanding. Its awe

Last week I salvaged 2 wooden picture frames, one is 11 X 17 and the other is 22 X 17. The later is the one i chose to distress for this project. The red photo divider (shown above) is the inner piece of the frame. Originally

Bad Habits

2011-03-29T15:23:00.001-04:00

It is only when you discard your bad habits that you are really a free man, Until you are a true master, able to command yourself to do the things that you should do but may not want to do, you are not a free soul. In that power of self-control lies the seed of eternal freedom. ~ Paramahansa Yogananda, "The Law of Success"

Why are some people predisposed to be anxious, overweight or asthmatic? How is it that some of us are prone to heart attacks, diabetes or high blood pressure?" There's a list of conventional answers to these questions. We are the way we are because it's in our genes. We turn out the way we do because of our childhood experiences. Or our health and well-being stem from the lifestyle choices we
