Reading (almost)

This one speaks for itself, Addie loves books.  She especially likes the ones that have flaps for her to open.  She now has 4 teeth on the bottom and 4 coming in on the top….needless to say she’s a little sore these days. 

Big Turkey Day

IMG_4100-1

Our Turkey Day started in a Keswick, Virginia about 1/2 hr outside of Charlottesville.  We attended a sending-off of fox hunters with their hounds at a small church built in 1747 (Grace Episcopal).  The tradition occurring every Thanksgiving has been going strong since 1929.  Infact, the event even attracted local celebrity’s such as Dwayne Johnson (The Rock.)  Addie sat beside us at the table and had her first mashed potato’s and whole fruit.

New Look

It was time to update to a more professional tuxedo-feeling website. Hope you like it…it took most of Today to code. 

Update: I noticed that my website doesn’t play well (animations) with MSN Internet Explorer…I use Firefox and you should to.  Get Firefox.

Jovial Baby

Addie often gets giggle spells and we never know what is going to set-it-off.  This time it happened to be when I was attempting to take my mouse from her to protect it from baby drool.  This goes on for 10 minutes or so.

Snow Washed Genes

I started with re-rending a old model from 4th year, (Hammons Hotel) and another, and another until I re-rendered all of my old projects.  The result is a ultra-cohesive manifesto of my work.  All referent DNA is missing; all context is subsumed.  A metallic copper material was used to highlight the key formal gestures and the rest rendered stark white.  There is an odd surrealism about seeing 6 yrs of projects reduced to the same medium.  No evidence of software impairment or juvenile ambition, just pure representation.

Addie @ the bar

This is a common scene where Addie and I demand food from mommy by banging our hand on the bar.  Addie takes it a step further by jumping on the bar-top and making a scene; she soon gets her food.

Big World Outside

My and Addie’s favorite thing to do is look out the window.  With a train station, restaurant and main pedestrian/traffic thoroughfare, the action from the window never ceases.
