View post →I do not shy away from my love of winter. And snow. And the cold. I should. I get dirty looks most of the time. And while I don’t long for Spring just yet, I do have to say, holy crap even I am cold. I worried when I left for California that I would […]
View post →As we found ourselves nearing rush hour traffic at the end of our 3,000 mile journey (added mileage in New Jersey thanks to my reliance on Google Maps) the sun was setting and the light was disappearing on the hills that I am always in awe of. Being from the East coast, I have noticed […]

View post →A quick drawing while out in LA two weeks ago, I spent a happy night having Mexican food with Schwartzy and Pagana. They have been on a self-imposed hiatus but I was told over queso, chorizo, and chips that this was the year of Schwartzy and Pagana. I was honored to be at one of […]
View post →Spent the week traveling to, attending a movie opening (Raze, not for the weak of stomach or heart) & hanging out in, and trying to leave Los Angeles (had my flight cancelled by Jet Blue). Still working as if it’s Monday. More drawings from the trip to come. —Dominick
View post →It is hard to explain the differences in how it felt to enter the park in Disneyland. I only had a day on a recent vacation to California, and I it wasn’t all for me. Kids apparently love the place too. Go figure. Unlike my children, I didn’t step foot into a Disney park until […]
