Hemingray Number 45

For me, one of the most enjoyable aspects of trading in antiques, collectibles etc is photographing them. This is a Hemingray Number 45 glass insulator.  Millions were produced for long distance telephone lines from 1938-1960.  They're not highly sought after, or worth a great deal; collectibility is often about rarity, and too many were made. 

Form not only served function beautifully in this design, but held its own in a way we'd consider indulgent, wasteful now.  I wonder how many of today's similarly utilitarian components, packaging products etc will survive this long, be considered lovely art objects one day.     

Postcards, greeting cards, and matted prints of this photograph are available at Redbubble. Prices start under $3.

A Dotpunk At Heart

Here's an ink, graphite, and charcoal drawing from a few years ago, At The Night's Heart. This step-by-step details how I was working then; my thanks to ArtGraphica for republishing.

Some things have changed since those days- I haven't done much inking lately, and charcoal has assumed a much larger role in my work. But I'm still a stippling fool, still a dotpunk at heart.

Postcards, greeting cards, and matted prints of At The Night's Heart are available at Redbubble.

Cut, Split, Stacked

No time for laying stone lately. But there's this. Much more momentary, but I've learned to value momentary. Life helps with that. Andy Goldsworthy's work does too, and opens up your head to a gazillion possibilities. Art is anything you make of it. Greeting cards of this image are available at my RedBubble store.
