master and student
[click to enlarge each]
Juan (aka "kindergarten boy") was in the zone the other day. Of late he has been working more figuratively--people with faces, sunshines, houses, etc. But here's a group that seems to focus on line and color (note, too, that a few of these incorporate his name, a la Robert Ryman). Juan has a distinct skill compared to other children for keeping his color clear and relatively unmixed (could it be the brush washing lessons I give him?)
The question is, in regard to color, who is influencing whom?

juan snaps : "the street"
This one pretty much describes 98 degree Philadelphia today.
Juan has chosen the images for the past several days. Now Salena is jealous and wants some of her photos on the internet...

juan snaps : "table"
Juan has been enjoying taking control of the camera lately. I think the results are interesting and fun. I'll be posting his photos regularly throughout July.

lost & found in the studio
I've done some major reorganizing in the studio over the past weeks. This is a little...I don't know what to call it...that I made in the third grade. It surfaces from time to time when I least seem to expect it.
"Anything can be Something"...a kind of mantra...my own voice speaking to me from the past.
