Emergent Emperor




Images from the day of January 25 at Haight and Stanyan. In the few hours of drawing I had before going to work, I finished most of the color fill. People kept asking me if he was a transformer. Robot Jesus? A polynesian transformer? Optimus prime? What?
Hoping to return there to finish it soon.

Dawn Emperor and Ghost









Dark Matter Inversion
1-21-11
A pleasant day of drawing in the Haight Street area.
A great collaboration with Tracy, a poet friend of mine. We met up around noonish at the entrance to Golden Gate Park at Haight and Stanyan, and worked on outlines for a couple of hours before stopping for lunch. A crepe place on Haight is a favorite of mine. The weather was like that of a nice summer day.
I worked on a sort of egyptian/aztec constructed face, and Tracy drew her 'Soul' character wrapped around it. I like the effect of the Soul spirit passing through the head.

Accreted Star Material









From 1-17-11

Estella and I worked at the corner of Church and 19th earlier today, on the muni train platform. Nice to enjoy the sunshine during a holiday off of work. Loopy characters kept stopping to chat with us. One guy was sipping wine from a big jug shaped like a kerosene can. Definitely riding the edge between philosophical and bonkers.
A little tricky to have to scuttle out of the way when the trains disgorged people. As the day shaded to twilight, we climbed to the top corner of Dolores Park.

A sunny yet cool day. We worked on some chalk at 24th and Folsom, adjacent to Phil'z Coffee.

Poet Circles Past









A friend of mine sent me some pictures that he had been promising for a while; from the camera on his phone I believe. These were taken at the Thursday night poetry events, of us preparing the chalk artwork. I have never taken any photos of the work down at this location, so it's nice to see them here.

Gatweway Spectrum





The afternoon of 12-16-10

After weeks and weeks of wet weather and being tied up with work, I had a chance today to craft a little chalk geometry. A ten pointed figure at 24th and Cypress.
