As I get some SD cards and USB thumb drives ready for next month’s Sept. trip up to Conn. and upper New York state, I came across, on one USB drive, a photo from last year’s Maine trip.

A foggy morning walk along the lake, next to the inn I stayed at during the greater part of that trip.

And yes, as always, I will be taking up some segments of art projects along with the camera to work on in those quiet evenings.

“Hey kids! First I treated you to some candy! Next, on Tuesday, August 29th, I’m taking you all down to see Craig’s artwork displayed on the 52 ft high big screen LED Baltimore located on North Charles St. across from Penn Station.”

Just received the email letting me know my artwork schedule for LED billboard display next week (from 8/29 through 9/4)

Images displayed on the LED light Billboard will be posted as they are displayed after August 29th and able to take photos of them.

Working on 24 Thumbnail Sketches for my Nov. solo exhibit at katsea gallery.

Five had been completed a few months ago and now onward for the other 19.

Of those 19, all ink dot-work is now completed, all designs figured out, 12 of the 19 inked in and this one finished.

A year ago (Aug 2022) I was a featured artist, along with Cheryl Fair, to display our artwork on the LED Billboard down at Penn Station. These are my artworks featured during that week.
I have also submitted current art and was approved to be a featured artist again for this year’s last week in August.
Once I get notice of those exact days/week I with let you know.

Another of several oil paintings to be displayed for my Nov. solo art exhibit at katsea gallery, this is one.

Happy Episode 100! Art Stuff plus a movie & music suggestion, yea!

Took a while but I made to Episode 100.

And yes, more art stuff! Circling back to working with the Thumbnail Sketches.

And yes, I will conclude this marvelous milestone of 100 episodes with another movie suggestion and a music one as well.

Once the art show is up and running in November I will give some extended information within the videos on the movie and music suggestions.

Maybe even do some of that ‘reaction to music’ video stuff.

In the meantime please search them out to watch or listen to.
