Walter Logeman: Journal
I tried to amalgamate my art blog, “In this Moment…” http://www.walterlogeman.com/art/ with this journal… years ago. Its only partially worked. However he old blog partially exists on The Internet archive. https://web.archive.org/web/20120625192038/http://www.walterlogeman.com/art/.

I enjoy Austin Keon’s stuff — one of the newsletters I have not unsubbed from.
The thing is I get inspired. I’d love to do collage like that – I carry around a paste stick — and use it too!!

When I finished my ThousandSketches project I wanted to continue making sketches and blogging them. I created In this moment… My art blog In addition to my sketches I added thoughts about art, and a lot of links to art I like and bits of info about artists.

185 Chairs – Christchurch a set on Flickr.
I found this a moving Exhibit. In remembrance of people who died in the Christchurch earthquake – on the site where the Oxford Street Baptist Church used to be. I recall campaigning for the church not to be demolished to widen the street in the 80s!
There was a note suggesting to sit in a chair. I could not make that step of role reversal.
Brassai (Gyula Halasz) Open Gutter From “Paris by Night” (1933)
