It’s been an strange day– productive on the one hand but distracting. Oddly enough, today I tripped over an artist whose beautiful work simultaneously hit the nail on the head and sparked my imagination. I know I’m hardly the first person to share this video, but it’s so lovely it needs to keep being shared. …
5 pictures
I’ve been inside for most of the day editing, ironically, images of the beautiful autumn colors outside. Here are just a few: Couldn’t resist the abruptness of the last image in contrast to the other four.

Since that first encounter with his work, I have been a fan. This evening, I thought I’d post a copy of the …
Combo
Watching this video leaves me dumbfounded– the amount of work and artistry that went in to this collaborative production is just incredible. Take a look at this piece created by Blu and David Ellis at the Fame Festival earlier this fall in Italy. COMBO a collaborative animation by Blu and David Ellis (2 times loop) …
