New Release: "Dobrý Den"

Ever since Petr was a young boy he'd had a habit... no, a compulsion... to peer outside his window first thing upon waking. At first he passed it off as simply being curious what Mother Nature had in store for him, so he could plan his day accordingly. But as he grew older it became impossible to deny a need to establish a connection with the outside world, as if something... or someone... was simply awaiting his discovery.

Now peering out at the simple little stone street below and across the terracotta colored rooftops, his gaze immediately goes to his neighbor's window. And once again his compulsion has paid off, as it has all summer long. Standing there was a so-far unnamed, raven haired beauty, naked save for a towel. Was he oblivious to Petr's eyes upon him, or was he being an enticing tease? Either way, Mother Nature had greeted Petr with a good morning, or as he would say in his native tongue, dobrý den!

My latest work, Dobrý Den, was inspired by a photo I took while on vacation last year in Prague. The charming little buildings on the street started me wondering, who lives here, what might it be like to live in this place. Of course my mind gave it a sexy little slant!

The original is available for purchase through the Lyman-Eyer gallery, but cannot be delivered until after my upcoming show in August. Limited edition Gallery and Studio prints are available for purchase through BREYETTE.COM at the Special First Day Price through Midnight ET tomorrow.

Priorities


As budget talks break down yet again...one has to wonder how can you seriously and reasonably negotiate and come up with the best plan for the country, the people of the country, when one side has admittedly and proudly proclaimed their number one priority is not the economy, not creating jobs, not the best interest of the citizenry but to ensure the President serves only one term.

Why would this be sooooo important to them? Perhaps so they have a 'yes' man, one of their own in the White House, and then steam roll any legislation they want. No need to compromise, work together, or even pretend to serve anyone but the powerful corporations that they work for.

on the drawing board: room with a view

Ahhhh, got the figure mostly done.  I'm afraid though, that that might have been the easier part.  Straight lines and corners are a challenge when using chalks and fingers.
