Walter Logeman Art Project 2006-7
In two separate conversations recently the same ideas cropped up. That a core value of art is that it is directly from the self. And art is good if it is innovative, and taps into the zeitgeist of the now. Maybe there moments when those two seemingly opposite aspects come together. They need to be hovering close together.
Good to know that the selection of prints are now safely in New York and there is a sample of them on the Allen Gallery!

I have had to repost the last few batches. They were at the wrong reduction and looked bad! Here is one I saved in the old format as it refers to the comment about “metallic”. (link Lost)

I have been posting up a backlog, but here is one from today! great.
Hmmm…
She comes and sits right next to me, almost on the keyboard.
Early hours. One more sketch – anything, before I sleep. I’ll doodle something.
But it does not work like that. I am in the midst of an exploration. I have been to New York. The doodle I swear is just a doodle. Yet there is synchronicity here. I did this a few days ago. I had a quick browse in a book on styles of art, and looked up Frank Stella, as I am just starting a chapter on him in Henry Geldzahler’s book. And there it was, my own doodle! It does give me a a good feeling, my recapitualtion is just about up to my childhood. Actually I think I am getting well into the sixties with the sketches, and the project as a whole – I think – is late 2007.
Can’t find it online. Will find it though & post a picture here. Now I want this book.

And while looking at my image I just had to fiddle with it. Removed background – looks better IMO. It is on show: here.

And now look here, Lisa Rivas has made a stamp.
Did this in thank midsts of building up my crashed machine. Re-installing everything, going into a daze, into a whirl of sleepless night.
Tech talk.
I am not going to have this happen again. I have good backups, but only of data. Now I want the whole machine back, as it was. The trouble with that is that the old installations are usually deteriorated and sluggish, so I am only too happy to get a clean installation. However, I want to choose the time for that. This was not the time, the setup was only a few months old and was fine! So Paragon Disk Drive Backup – What do you think?
