In addition to the work currently on display at Just A Taste on Aurora St. in beautiful downtown Ithaca, yours truly has an ART FUSION EVENT coming up on August 20th at Castaways with the always popular and ever fabulous local band The Blind Spots from 10pm til ?


I love pictures, and old things; my artwork is an exercise in combining the two.

When I sit down to work I don my trusty X-Acto to help me tackle the piles of LIFEs and calendars and musty nature encyclopedias that furnish my workspace. After a few hours of flipping pages and half-heartedly reading 50-year-old articles, I set to work carefully pinning the culled images up on one of my 6 ft. bulletin boards. Only then - only after they have been uprooted and held in suspended animation for any given period of gestation - do I try to re-contextualize the images and give them new homes, and new meaning in carefully collected cast-off frames.
