Hey BB!

I dedicate these small works to my dear friend Brie. My BB.

Untitled

I listened to Regina Spector for the majority of the creation of this painting. Looking back on it, two songs stand out to me. Lullaby and Chemo Limo.

I was listening to NPR's jazz hour one night and they started playing the most amazing music I had ever heard in a long time!

Big Mama Thornton.

Story Book.

How the book is presented as a whole.

(1)

He is old and alone. He went out and bought a little pet today. What a fun little pet!

(2)

She was once young and entertaining. Now she is ugly and too old to play with. Time to let her go.

(3)

She is now replaced with an even younger pet. She is more fun to play with.

(4)

But now she too has become old and ugly. Time to get rid of her.

(5)

Three young pets! Three new young pets to play with.

(6)

Three boring pets. Three old, ugly, boring pets. Time to let them go.

(7)

Ah ha! These new pets come as a pair, dressed to play cowboy and native.

(8)

Now they are too old to dress up and play.

(9)

He is old and tired of buying pets. May they all rest peacefully, finally.

(10)

Oh but on this day, this very day, he has come across a little kitten. There there little kitten.

(11)

What a sly cat he is, should have taken the kitten from the start.

Memory Drawings

"Hey Boy! Put a Jacket on!"

In first grade we liked to pretend we were Native Americans in the Sandbox.

Before they demolished the old playground at Buttonball.

Summer, when you and I were seven.
