Saw the video today: The Man in the Hat. I loved it. Made the image with a snap from the TV screen. I think I like it because I have been to his gallery a few times. I’ve met Peter. I would love him to sell my prints!

Alice Neel Video + iPhone app
Two images made on the iphone using ToonPaint. But not only the ap of course. Various levels of sampeling going on here. They are are from photos I took from the TV screen, while I was watching a video about Alice Neel, Very impressive!
Lets compromise the legibility
Calligraphy – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Modern calligraphy ranges from functional hand-lettered inscriptions and designs to fine-art pieces where the abstract expression of the handwritten mark may or may not compromise the legibility of the letters (Mediavilla 1996).
Chagall
New painting by Chagall. Just listened to the BBC program interview. Love these insights & stories.
Buy a print!
Prints of all my sketches, in this blog, in the Thousand Sketches and in the Gallery are for sale.
Dare I say it, there is just enough time left for Christmas if you buy now. In New Zealand you have a little longer.
Art?
This is an image of Edgar Degas.
It began as a self portrait. Was captured in a movie and then I snapped it off the TV – made this using an iphone ap. But is it art? Anyway, I like it.
More Comic Art
This is from “Where Grows the Bitter Herb” by Ben Powis
Comic art
