This sculpture of five pen nibs is located at one of the entrances to Supreme Court Gardens in the city. I figured it was some kind of monument to the generations of clerks and lawyers who've worked in the courts - as it turns out it's all about written memories of the gardens from the Victorian era. Go figure.

“A lot of our family history is on Union Street. These roads were our play grounds. There were no cars back then and we’d play football in these streets.”
I am working on a small memory plaque for a boxer that recently passed at the old age of 11 from cancer. They took his paw print afterwards at the vet's office (something new to me) and I was able to make a reverse mold of it out of poly clay so that it can be touched and you can actually feel the texture of what his paw was like. He was missing a toe on this paw by the way.
After my sneak preview at Arvid Wretman and Jenny Palén's art exhibition at the Haninge Cultural Centre last week, I went back the other day for a closer look. The showroom is very dark. The only lighting comes from a couple of spotlights directed at some of the large scale paintings on the walls. On those paintings figures are emerging from a melting city that has been placed on the floor of the show room. The Memory Hole is a reflection of the mass produced plastic toys that came with the MTV revolution in the early 1980's.
Two weeks ago I took a quick trip up to Frankfort. I only took 120-film cameras, and I've got a lot of scanning still to do…
Taken in early October 2001 with a Yashica OM10 on 200 speed color film, scanned, and converted to b&w in 2011.
"On the morning of September 11, 2001 I was on my way to a class...."
I went shooting today :D
This one holds a special place in my heart. My godfather gave this to me, making it my first firearm ever. This one's an FN/Browning Challenger I (with all the Belgian stamps!) chambered in .22lr. It's the predecessor to the renowned Buckmark line of target pistols Browning currently offers. Left is 3 yards, right is 7.

Memories . ... a cutwork cloth my Mother stitched by hand over 70 years ago and the white kid gloves that belonged to my great-grandmother.
Re shot this again. Used a difuser to soften the north facing window light, different camera, a different lens with a 2.8 apperture and a slightly different angle.
Texture is kk_totally
I saw this locket hanging in my sister's room. I always notice when I walk in there. It's so beautiful and every time I see it I think of my Grandma, Cecilia Barbour.
Saturday, June 13th 2009. Today was a lazy day, full of sleeping. It was great, I slept until about 3 in the afternoon. Can we talk real quick about the DTV transition, and Channel 8 PBS! I Don't get it now! WTF I LOVE PBS!! I think I'm going to have to go buy a better antenna, the one I bought at X-mas was kind of cheap. I'm so sad, I wont get to watch my Rick Steve's Europe. OK back to my day. After waking I decided to clean my room and closet, which is always fun due to the fact that I always find something I forgot I have. It's usually a memory of the past. It always get me teary eyed, an sets me back a few hours of work of. The pet rock my sister gave me ages ago after I kept killing my hermit crabs. So she was like here you cant kill this. And Success I have yet to kill Rocky (yes that's his name) lol!
Today's Song comes from Rilo Kiley- After Hours
"if you close the door
the night could last forever
leave the sunshine out
and say hello to never
all the people are dancin' and they're havin such fun
i wish it could happen to me
but if you close the door
we never have to see the day again
you never have to see the day again
once more
we never have to see the day again"
Here is another digital woodcut that I made tonight with my Painter program. Like the image I posted here yesterday, this also began as a photograph that I took last summer during a walk at the Cummings Center Pond. I like the way the woodcut effect emphasizes the complicated lines of the flowers and leaves.

Just finished this afghan on Christmas Day. It's 7 rows wide and extra long. It's washed and now being used by my honey. He says he loves it. Most of the yarn is remnants from his mother's collection.
American Motoring Memories is a classic car restoration shop in Culver City Calif. The owner Jeff Reade concentrates primarily on early Corvette restorations but is known to do total & partial restorations and update maintenance on many of the Big Three (GM, Ford, Chrysler) classics from the '50s to early 70's.
To create this image I have used the blur tool on photoshop to make the boy on the left look blurry. My original idea was to blank him out in white, but after using the blur effect I feel it worked better and conveyed what I wanted it to better. I wanted to show someone you don’t really remember. They used to be a part of your life when you were younger, but as you’ve grown up you’ve forgotten them, the memories aren’t as clear.
Found this while in an old book: the flight stub from my second trip to Africa. Any guesses to the year? (No cheating if you know the answer) There's a good hint on the ticket cause you don't see this anymore.
