Now in private collection, thank you!
Been a while. It’s a snowy day here and seems like a good moment to do one of these music reaction things.
Music: Jon Lord (keyboards), played with Deep Purple and Whitesnake.
Given that Jon passed away in 2012, this live set could have taken place late 1990’s/early 2000’s. I could not find a date for this set.
Song: ‘Unsquare Dance’ written by Dave Brubeck (1961)
Art: since my art exhibits have tampered off for the 2025 year, I can now give a little more time to the music reactions. I still do art and an art journey on YouTube video.
While 2025’s involvement in art exhibits will be sparse that doesn’t mean I will taper off on doing art stuff. I am working on two paintings now.
This is one that highlights changes made at the beginnings of applying paint to increase the perception of depth of field between the subject matter.
Art Stuff Ep. 121
I filmed this YouTube video of my favorited Christmas movies last year so I thought I’d show it again for those looking for a Christmas movie you might not have seen.
In the video I mention a couple that I like but don’t have in my procession. One I forgot to mention was ‘Ernest Saves Christmas’
I mention in the video ‘over the next 20 days’ I know it’s 10 days now. I posted it last year on Dec 5th.
A good friend, Lee, and I took a drive down to Penn Station/Metro Gallery to see my artwork display on the 50 foot tall LED Baltimore Billboard. I took a film clip of the rotation of the 5 images to give you a view.
Still best to see it in person if you can, up until Nov. 25th.
Billboard is atop the Metro Gallery, 1700 N Charles St. just pass Penn Station.
Three of the paintings are to be shown Dec 13-15th at the Highlandtown Gallery Pop-Up show. The one image in top pair. The two images in the middle set.
Two paintings shown in the bottom set are currently being shown at Manor Mill up until Dec 1. Will post separate JPG images over the next few weeks.
My weekend Pop-Up show at Highlandtown Gallery is Friday, Dec 13-Saturday, Dec 14-Sunday, Dec 15. Hours for all three days- 12pm to 4pm.
Highlandtown Gallery, 248 S. Conkling Street, Baltimore, MD 21224
