An interesting piece of information: My aunt called me today to relay some sad news. Yesterday she had to put Pepper (the dog in the previous post) to sleep. Ironically the same day I posted my drawing of her.

If gaurdian angels and all that jazz exist, then he is watching me now. I will see you on the other side, Zaide, hugz and kisses.

The Star-Spangled Banner

2007-04-19T12:34:00.000-07:00

This is on a porch of a care home where my grandparents lived for 5-7 years. They were looked after by Henry, a dear friend of the family now. This image means a lot to me. The lady at the end of the table facing us is Rita my grandmother, and the only male on the right is Raymond my grandfather. The lady with her back to us is Jean Swenson Hamilton who has artwork in the Smithsonian. Also she was the oldest of the group nearly 95 yet ironically the most sharp mentally of everyone at the table. Plus she was a delight to be around. The lady on the left is Mary. She would chew her food and spit it back out systematically till it all looked like it had gone for a ride in a blender.

Between her my grandfather with dementia and my grandmother with her Alzheimer’s it was always an entertaining visit. There was a piano there and I would play my humble repertoire of partial songs. During The Star-Spangled Banner, never with fail would the 4 of them face me and attempt to sing along by humming the tune.

99.999% of my art that I post on this blog is original but I have scanned some of my very old work from when I drew from photographs. Old as in pre- Y2K. This is a copy of someone elses work. It was originally a photograph by Irving Pen. I made it with clicky pencil on reg paper.

This is a drawing I did in the lobby of the hostel where I stayed, just two blocks from Times Square. The guy on the left is a model, he had a thick southern accent yet looked completely asian. The dude on the right is a drunken derelict.

In this image, the drunk man claims that he can read palms. Afterwards he asked the model if he thought I would kiss him for five dollars. Yikes :-)

I flew out to Manhattan in Oct. 2001 to see the sky scrapers before the rest of them fell down. This man was living at the hostel where I stayed. There was something wrong with him. He would laugh at random intervals, either in the middle of his own sentance or when no one was speaking at all.
