Fernanda and her Dancing Ladies

Fernanda Cohen, http://www.fernandacohen.com/
my newest illustrator in the series, created and painted a scene that she could feel at home. Jane Choi, http://www.janechoimakeup.com/
our make-up stylist lent her skills to add  the painting onto Fernanda. The collaboration was seamless. Many thanks to all who helped make this a very creative addition.

Father & Son Commuters

September brings new commuters. I do not know where they originated but I just happened to sit across from this family moment on the 1 train heading downtown to the studio after a late afternoon meeting. Both were so intent in doing their work. It seemed a little odd at first that the dad was writing away in the composition book and the son was working on the puzzle (assumption). Their expressions mimicked each other so beautifully. I took three frames on my iphone. Within one stop and then they were gone. I did notice on their exit both sneakers were untied.

Arcadia National Park, Maine

We hiked, swam and ate lobster. Totally an enjoyable week with glorious weather.
The trails are just great for hiking. This is Cody and Chris and a bird friend on top of Pemetic Mt.
We explored mountain ponds, where it's hard to distinguish sea from earth.
