Scrivener & Kaffeehaus

It's been a busy week. A lot going on. Just trying out Scrivener, software for the Mac especially for writers. Very impressed with first 20 minutes with the video tutorial and quick exploration. Cool features like note card-style outlining that can be transformed into sequential text, separate window for any multimedia resource files - can be open at the same time you are writing. More to come!

Just discovered a new coffeehouse - more in the European tradition - well designed and spacious. The best coffee I have had in about 20 years!

Also, just ordered a canvas print (my first one) of one of my digital pieces. 8 days to deliver.

This one "LightSpray" -

Back in the studio

Yep, that's right. Just got the keys yesterday, and will be setting up shop this weekend at the studio in the Medical Arts building, 3rd and Ellsworth in San Mateo.

Since the removation of our condo is moving into final stages, I have to give up my closet desk/studio area, and turn it back into a closet.

So, the studio becomes more of a necessity than a luxury. Also, I am starting to experiment with charcoal drawing - and it tends to be messy. Not good for the soon-to-be-new carpets.

Tomorrow night is the first public showing of my artwork. At the PlaynTrade (206 S B Street) event as part of the Third Thursday Artwalk. 6 - 8 pm. Myself and 3 other artist rotating on two HD Tv screens for two hours! So Cool!

The PlaynTrade video

Quite a while since my last post, but a lot has happened. SPOWPA has produced a DVD-length video for presentation at an event at the PlaynTrade video store on B street in San Mateo. The video displays selected artwork from myself and three other artists - Jacquelyn Berl, Maria Elwood and Kate Adams. I am truly honored to be in their company. Final cut is due in the next few days. Will place a link in the next post as soon as I get it.

I produced several new pieces especially for the video - in a 9x16 (letterbox) format - since the video wil be shown on wide flat-screen TVs. Here are a couple of samples -
