A couple years ago I designed this model of the Washington State Ferries' Super Class in Google (now Trimble) SketchUp. I left it in its rough draft state up at the 3D warehouse and didn't bother it for the better part of the last couple years.

This afternoon, I took a call from KIRO Television's managing editor for KIRO 7 Eyewitness News. The call was to inquire about usage rights and licensing for a likeness of the model to be used on their morning traffic report graphics.

Needless to say, the rest is history!

Persistence of Vision: False colour sky and big globular drops.

Fimo. Back-beaded 15o's Czech beads. Drops are from some stuff that used to be made for scrap-bookers---I like to play with it, but can no longer find it.

Sharmila Tagore addressing the audience.

As this garlic continued to grow inside my fridge, I thought I would make a good example of its persistence. Or maybe garlic just grows better in the cold. Regardless of which, I sat it against a window as if it were wishing it were growing outside with the others of its kind.

Here's a POV using a CUBLOC CB280 in the works...

Working on drawing faces from reference photos in only ink (water soluble and not). Often started or done completely "on the go".

This divided collector roadway is part of a project that Mike McRoberts worked on for Sear-Brown in Fort Collins, Colorado. This roadway was complicated to design because it contained raised medians, traffic circles, concrete crosspans, detached sidewalks, and varying width road sections used for traffic calming.

Developer: Writer Homes, Denver, CO

The Persistence of Memory

Salvador Dalí (Spanish, 1904–1989)

1931. Oil on canvas, 9 1/2 x 13" (24.1 x 33 cm)

I liked how the road kept going despite the presence of the stream.

Eventually, she was able to get the top off of the box.

~Persistence~

When things get tough you have to keep going.

My first Black and White image captured and processed in 2016. I was doing some test shots and this one I liked the most. I also like the rain under the clouds in the background.

Wines at the Persistence of Dreams after-reception were provided by Vines on Pine.

I'm not sure how this tree ended up growing in a concrete pipe. Was the pipe standing up originally? Leaning on something?

At this point the roots are cracking the concrete at the bottom...

Harmon added this image of the woman and one other to the original painting "Persistence of Memory"

New edition to my Salvador Dali collection.

This ones an "after" Dali lithograph.

I bought it because I wanted to get any of his prints that had this one graphic editors markings , especially the finger print shown.

It was one of three prints that came up on ebay a while ago (from the same seller) -

All of them had the finger print.

I actually was surprised to get this as cheap as I did as seller contacted me and sold it to me as a "second chance" offer.

I lost the auction but he sold it at my 2nd highest bid price.

The graphic editor ( Harmon) got Dali's finger print after Dali could no longer sign prints due to his illness , before death and used them to allegedly authenticate the lithographs.

Actually this shouldn't be considered an "original" Dali litho as I am sure he didn't do anything as far as the production of it ,

including allowing the size changes or additional images added to the original "Persistence of Memory"

There are still a few of last season's leaves that hang in there until they are sure the new generation is well on its way. :) (Due to this delayed spring, I understand their persistence!)
