Here’s an illustration for The New York Times Sunday regional editions. As another new year begins, a grandmother reflects upon her past New Year’s Eves and how they changed as her family grew. Art direction by the gracious Richard Weigand. Happy New Years everyone!

Ok- I’ve been out the invisibleman loop for a wee bit too long, so I’m gonna post a bunch of recent stuff that I’ve been up to. First up, Get a hold of one of these limited edition (only 19 printed), hand shaped, five colour Old school Slalom skateboards! Each one is printed on top quality 11 Ply Canadian Birchwood, and the top graphic is surrounded by a handcut vintage style grip job. They’re available to buy without tucks or wheels from my etsy shop for only $75.
Let her rip. Hang ten.
Well here’s the finished gazebo that my helper and I finished a few weeks ago. It’s made of Cedar, so it will last a long long time. We built the roof of Cedar too.
We made a couple of test arbors to figure out the joining of the logs and cut everything with a band saw. After awhile we were able to “guess” the angles and rough test fit the logs together. Then retrim the logs to fit.
In the spring, I plan to put the rest of the trees in and the vines on the arbors and trellises. My goal is to get the property to look more like a park. Besides, it’s a good hobby working in the fireswamp. I’m going to start work on large R.O.U.S.’s made out of topiary next. ( Rodents of unusual size.) Stay tuned.

More sketches from the same session I posted about below. This time the model posed for two minutes before changing position. These drawings were done at the Monday night figure drawing session at the Brooklyn Artist Gym, held each week from 6:30 to 9:30 pm. The sessions are open the public and only $10 for non BAG members. Stop by if you are interested. More info can be found here: http://www.brooklynartistsgym.com/events.html. There is also 3 hour long pose session on most Saturdays.
