Above is a small lino-cut I had done at the South Street Seaport titled Point of Entry…into the melting pot.  Thought it was kind of appropriate given the occasion this holiday weekend, Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

View post →One of the things that impresses me so much about Bali is the culture of gratitude that prevails. Every day, offerings are made to the gods – rice, flowers, little pieces of palm – in gratitude for everything in life. From the small to the large, it’s so easy to forget about being grateful for […]
View post →“Oma goes to Paris” …sounds like a children’s book in the making. In reality “Oma” is a very very dear family friend who just left a few days back to visit with her son in Paris during this Thanksgiving holiday. While she was packing I spoke with her on the phone and she shared her […]
View post →The moment always seems to arrive sooner than expected. But that is life. I’ve actually planned for this post for some time.

View post →I went uptown last Wednesday evening to watch the blowing up of the balloons for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade. I love the surrealism of these giant cartoon characters, tied down like Gulliver while we Lilliputian citizens walk and gawk at the spectacle. Some of the characters are old friends, like Ronald McDonald; some are […]
