Garden Without Flowers
Filed in Animation, Gardens, Personal, Watercolor Painting, July 19, 2007, 11:39 pmI made Garden Without Flowers in 1999 using watercolor cut-outs and backgrounds. Fausto Caceres created the amazing soundtrack.
* note- I just updated with a less pixilated version.
Absence
Filed in Animation, Miscellaneous, Personal, July 8, 2007, 11:57 pmI’m back from vacationing near the Columbia River Gorge, Washington. We had a lovely time!
I went to a few of the events at the the PLATFORM International Animation Festival held in Portland, Oregon and wish I could have seen more, especially the Installation and Event Party.
Here are a few links that I gathered from artists’ […]

Stalling…
Filed in Drawing, Friday Favorite Films, Personal, May 10, 2007, 12:49 amYesterday, the wonderful Lisa S. informed me that Izzy Cox is coming out with an album very, very soon. The song “Devil, Devil” makes me think of the movie “Touch of Evil” by Orson Welles.
This film via “Cartoon Brew” looks very interesting I wish I could see it.
Mostly, I have been working and stalling on […]
Garden Folly
Filed in Miscellaneous, Personal, April 25, 2007, 10:01 pmMy watercolors have been collecting some dust. Here is a fragment of what I’m working on; hopefully you’ll see the final version, soon.
In the 17th century, the Barberinis, who rose to prominence in Renaissance Rome, paid homage to bees by placing images of them everywhere: on their coat of arms, on church altars, and on […]
The long post that never was
Filed in Animation, Drawing, Personal, ScapeX, April 3, 2007, 11:35 pmI had a shaggy-dog post that went on forever in my head, but I think it is best to just cut my losses and for now keep this post short and sweet.

Filed in Architecture, Before-Sleep/Dream-Image/Sketch, Drawing, Gardens, Miscellaneous, Permaculture, Personal, March 9, 2007, 12:50 amA couple of weeks ago my Dad handed me this image of this building, the Quai Branly Museum, by Jean Nouvel.
Has anyone seen it? It conjures up so many ideas about gardens, buildings, and cities all with multiple uses and forms intertwined with each other.
It also makes me think a lot about Permaculture, a term […]
