Annotation: Roll Um Easy

Here’s an older video that I found recently in my archives. I made this one about Little Feat’s wonderful Roll Um Easy. Annotation: Roll Um Easy

Snowy evening

I just found this set of images from the winter of 2008-2009. Snowy nights have become so rare in NY. It’s special now when we get a night like this one.

Thinking about thriving

This one started out with the following prompt: make a self portrait that shows you in a thriving state, but then it went somewhere else. It is more about the contemplation of thriving than of thriving itself. Regardless, here’s the video.

A quick journal entry…

Some more thoughts about the relationship between fear and creation and the creative urge. Inspired by David Whyte’s “The Heart Aroused.”

Remembering Bo

I was sad to hear yesterday that Bo died. Bo, the wonderful cocker-pit who belonged to my friend Jamie was one of a kind.

On Memorial Day weekend in 2006 (I think), we met Jamie and his future wife Anja at a Friendly’s near Turner’s Falls Mass. As Bo sat outside, we watched everyone walk past our window and check her out. Here’s a video of the procession.

A thin line between surviving and thriving

Here is a short video I made about the fear and wonder of making art.

In Dan’s Barn

Here’s one that I forgot to post. I made it just about a year ago, after visiting my brother in Vermont.

What I did on my summer vacation

Watching the sun go down from Indian Neck in Wellfleet, Mass.

De-certified. Non-handicapped.

At Thanksgiving this year, as the meal was nearing the table inside, I was out on my parents’ porch taking pictures of my daughter and thinking about how much we have to be thankful for. I was reminded of this footage yesterday when I went to a meeting at my daughter’s school.
