planes like leaves thrown up by passing cars.
i used a drawing (also below) of a stack of those steel plates that cover road repairs in this one. the stack was on the corner of S3rd and Havemeyer. the green stuff is packing peanuts cut in strips.
With a drawing and other bits of stuff. The final photograph will be part of Storm Story.

Sunday 10th studio setup for a new image for the Storm Story series. There are bits of styrofoam and pastry sugar, strips of paper, plastic wrappers, old packing tape, cotton and a small drawing. I was thinking of a winter storm – will know when I print it.
more backgrounds for photographs – drawings made on a trip to the hudson highlands, and wandering around NYC

for the moment, i’ve gone over the edge into a crazy obsession with postcards. the views that are both generic and obscure combined with a shorthand intimacy make me wonder what sort of narrative could be invented. the brief text was necessary because the so-called postcard era (1900-1906) precluded any text save for address on the back. A new body of work may be forthcoming..
“Let’s spend our vacation in…”
I will be in a group show in the spring of 2010. my piece will be a maquette of a power plant type of structure set into a rocky cliff bordering a lake, waterfall and bridge. The piece will be about anticipation.
here are a two new drawings made while traveling by bus. these will be backgrounds in new constructions for photographs.
setup for new image from tonight, to be printed soon. drawing in background is of columns between the train tracks. also with broken windshield glass, glass pendant, chunk of glass, packing foam. that’s the filmm camera lens in the left foreground
