CUP OF ROSES

Part of the Story of My Life is that I like
Photography as an art form. Years ago 
I attended a photographic art exhibit in Poland,
somewhere near Warsaw -- and I promise to
refresh my memory, so I can remember
the name of the town. -- One of the exhibiting
artists was a young man, whose
photographs stirred the audience; there was
a talk about him and his dried roses
 -- they were unusually beautiful.
My friend and I approached the artist
and exchanged a few words with him.
And that was that.
Except, that 34 years later I still remember
those photographs of dried roses.

MEMORY REFRESHER

I would like to reprint here an old story from the "Cabbage Rules My Universe" site. This story, tilted "Watch Repairman's Daughter" is important to me. I have been thinking about writing a book for children with my own illustrations for some time now. My blogs helped me realise that my story is interesting enough, and that I would like to tell it and turn it into a book not for children only. My inspiration for this project is the life story of Hans Christian Andersen.

MY FRUIT PIE ART

This is the first fruit pie of 2012. It will be known as
"the Apple Pie of January 2012".
I made this Apple Pie differently-- notice the stripe/ribbon
technique, and also: it is a lighter version of "the apple pie line" -- it was made with only 3 apples! Two McIntoshes plus one Red Delicious!:)

SNOWFLAKES

While in Dunk In Donuts at around 8:56 p.m. on January 2, 2012, I crated this snow design
based on one of the beautiful photographs published in the book by Kenneth Libbrecht: The Little book of Snowflakes. My design, in turn, has been used in the flyer for my  Weekend Youth Drawing Workshop: "Winter" that will take place on January 21.

TEDDY BEARS IN MY ATELIER

This isn't the first bear that was "working" in the art studio on West Oakland Park Boulevard. His name is Xmas Teddy, because he is wearing a red vest with a pocket in red and green pattern. He was originally bought at Publix several years ago during one of the many pre Christmas Holiday shopping trips that I frequently made back then.
