Riverwalk Extension


We went to the Farmers Market and also went down to the new Riverwalk Extension. I found a nice place for some frogs to rest but there were no frogs to be found. So, if you know of any frogs that are looking for a new home you can share this picture with them.

May Flowers



My mom bought some new plants for the garden and we worked together at planting some in pots that we then put around the garden. I got a picture of my mom's really messy hands after she was done. Below, are some plants that I potted with the help of my brother.

Art Preservation



It is a lot of fun playing with my blocks but I can become very sad at how quickly my art can be destroyed (by my brother)! So, after I had completed this masterpiece I decided to memorialize it with a few pictures so I could remember it before it was too late. I think that this is why I enjoy my camera a little more these days than my blocks.

Magical Kingdom


My grandma and grandpa took us to Disney Land last week. I got to meet princesses and found a really beautiful castle that belongs to Cinderella. I got my dad to pose while waiting in line to talk to the Little Mermaid. She loved my sparkle shoes. I loved her tail. We were both impressed with ourselves.

Macro Economics



My dad has an obsession with coffee. He orders his beans from Illinois, puts them in a coffee bean preserver, grinds them fresh daily with his conical grinder, and then uses his imported coffee maker from Denmark (that doesn't even allow fro presetting or automatic shut off) every day. I have pictured his excess above. Don't even get me started with his wine obsession.

It is this type of investment that prevents me from obtaining a wonderful macro lens to catch nature's wonders! So, I bring to you a picture, as best as I can with my limited resources, and will allow you to imagine what could have been in this fleeting moment with better technology. My humble apolgies.

Found Art Vs. Art Created


Sometimes you are sitting at lunch with your family at Rosario's and you put the camera on the table and notice the beautiful art of the table setting and the colors chosen by the restaurant. This is the epitome of found art.
Sometimes you take puzzle pieces and put them in your Plex Drivin' Friends vehicle and you have created art where it did not exist previously.
These pictures illustrate both concepts and allow the viewer to draw their own assumptions of art.

Artistic Differences

Well, it has been a good ride so far on this new
adventure between artist and agent but due
to some serious artistic differences we must end
this relationship and thus this blog. To the many
followers that I have accumulated over this brief
period, I give you my deepest apologies. I am
hoping to begin anew with a different artistic
outlet with someone who shares my goals and
beliefs. With that, I leave you with a bit of
nature in the backyard. Thanks again for your
continued support. Rest assured, this has
nothing to do with these difficult economic times.
Remember, it is in these moments when we must
embrace the arts and allow them to to tell us...
Aprils Fools.
