Peter Coffin goat and cracker

At City Hall, near the amazing fountain with working gas lanterns, Peter Coffin is on exhibit until the end of this month. I'm keeping his goat fed while it's here.

Happy Mother's Day mom. Me & cracker.

Happy Mother's Day to everyone's mom, but especially to mine! This is our Conservatory Garden in full bloom. The crab apple blossoms have already come and gone, many of the irises are done, the dogwoods and magnolias are now a burst of green, but the tulips are having their run.

Mark di Suvero and Cracker

I once worked on Wall Street, believe it or not. I was Dick Grasso's personal photographer. No kidding.

There are lots of great sculptures in the Financial District. Guys play backgammon and chess at lunch time under this Mark di Suvero sculpture.

Noguchi and cracker

At Liberty and Broadway in the Financial district, there's a giant cube -- and now a giant matching cracker! (A very temporary installation)

Yoram Wolberger and Cracker

The first Saturday of every month, Target picks up the tab for all of New York to visit the Brooklyn Museum. They have lots of live music, like a pop brass band and an 80s style synth band with live xylophone this month, and make it a huge event. They stay open to 11pm -- an extra 5 hours of art!

On the fifth floor, where all the young folks go, there was a Yoram Wolberger sculpture when we got off the elevator. He seemed to need a cracker.

NYC Resistor laser is great for cutting boxes!

I learned how to use the lazer at NYC Resistor to cut boxes this past Saturday. I received a treat in December in a small pizza box, and thought it could work well as a bracelet package. So, I set out to make a 5" version of that box. Now I can cut them with the lazer in 1.25 minutes! That's a lot faster than me cutting them by hand in about 10 minutes each. (I made about 20 of these boxes for Christmas so you can see that 25 minutes vs 3 and a half hours is a big savings. The phone is for scale.

Arto Bones on the way

Here I am signing the boxes for Art-O-Mat bones. Get yours at a machine near you! You can see some waxes of upcoming projects on my bench in the background.
