New Stores

I'm currently in search of stores to carry Rabbit Food. Suggestions are definitely welcome! In the past month, RFC books are newly available at both Atomic Books in Baltimore and Quimby's in Chicago. I hope to be adding more to the list soon.

New painting in progress

This painting is finally coming along and looking like something. Unlike the machines featured in my 2004 Speed Queen painting from this laundromat, these are EconoDryer brand, so that'll be the title this time.
p.s. this pic is also found in the Work In Progress page in the Artwork section of the site.

Food-related Lecture

My friend tipped me off on this link to Malcolm Gladwell (author of The Tipping Point) speaking about the diversification of flavors/varieties in the processed food industry, a lecture titled "What we can learn from spaghetti sauce. Aah, interesting and entertaining! http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/view/id/20
I had to share.

Repaired Building with Birds

I Finished a new painting about a week back. I mentioned it before, but I thought it deserved it's own posting. You can also look at it in my Modern Scenes gallery, or on my Flickr page.
The next one in the works will commence this weekend. I've been so busy with books books books I've not sat at the easel. Darren says all I talk about right now is "books, books, books." Yep.
