JANUARY EXPERIMENTATION AND WORK IN PROGRESS...

besides the temperatures that hovered well below the freezing point these past few weeks, i've kept myself quite occupied with some new projects and alternating this with indoor running, meditation and heat-producing yoga...

wishing everyone a successful, dynamic and happy year of the dragon!

'T VOLK/THE PEOPLE/LA FOULE

after some time doing the fine precise architecture/animal drawings, it feels good to loosen up with these quick character wash studies.
except for one little face that is peeping out from behind a shoulder. can you see her ?

ROMANESCO...

this vegetable is such an enigma that it is called a romanesco cauliflower in the u.s and canada, a romanesco broccoli and a romanesco cabbage in germany. it is the most amazing chartreuse color and unlike hybrids like broccoflower and orange and purple cauliflower, it is a species unto itself. it demands photographing as much as cooking.
it's been cultivated in italy since the 16th century. the individual sections look very much like cauliflower, with the same texture, but once cooked and eaten, it is unmistakably akin to broccoli. so I read. but haven't eaten it. yet.

MY NEIGHBOURHOOD [3]

during my many walks around the neighbourhood,
i notice myself halting, observing and admiring the
many decorative elements on facades, arched doorways,
fine lace translated into wood... and amongst all this
static history, busy squirrels prepare for a new season...

MY NEIGHBOURHOOD

walking through this area, i am reminded of a time
of the past, an industrial past. and because of its colorful past,
a detail of an architectural decoration, a door, a window or
the corner of a street seems to want to whisper a story...
