My bedroom in SF.  I miss it.

Looks like I have some options.

I captured this image scroll from a video that’s been uploaded onto iMovie for editing.  It grabs an image for every 2 seconds (or whatever you adjust it to).

Remembering my last night in SF before leaving for NY.

Last week was a special one.  Sandy came  to visit me (and nyc) for five days.  We explored the city’s streets, neighborhoods, coffee, and its delicious food.  It was so nice to spend time with her.

In the last weeks, I have been reading a lot about reflections in reference to science, psychology, and computers.

I decided that while I am in NY, I would challenge myself to resist painting.  I like to play with different mediums, but have noticed that I always return to paint.  I wonder, is paint my crutch?  I hope that in stepping back for a moment, I can reevaluate my relationship with painting.   When I return to it, (if I return to it), my recommitment will be more authentic than it’s ever been.
