Stripes and Weavings
Alone in the Studio with some Muses

This is what has come out of my artist residency at the Covello Center for the Aging on East 109th street in Manhattan in the first two weeks.
I have also been documenting the place and the people and the streets, but this is what happens alone in the studio.

I have just begun a two-month artist residency at the Carter Burden Leonard Covello Center for the Aging  at 109th Street between 1st and  2nd Avenues, NYC.

I have a big room to do anything I want in.

I've started by pinning up some reproductions (women in art history) on the wall, and drawing from them. And weaving with them.


Van der Weyden

Lautrec

Velazquez

Realized they are my muses: excited to see what happens there.
