Paper skeleton

I recently bought a kit to build a cardboard skeleton, about 4 feet tall, at a local Barnes & Noble. I finally put it together yesterday and hung it from my mic stand in my office/studio.

Santa Monica photos

We decided to go to Santa Monica to walk around and have dinner at Monsoon. The big news is that Aviva let me take her picture and post a couple – she’s lost 30 pounds and looks great! Of course, here are some pics:

We finished a piece of furniture

Aviva has been looking for something to put an oriental box on for a while – she found a black shelf with red interior at a neighbor’s (they run a regular yard sale of furniture). We got some gold wax and applied it, first thinned with mineral spirits, then direct from the can. We think […]

Photos on Sawtelle

Sawtelle in Los Angeles is a cool street – just north of the 10 is a section that has roots in the Japanese community. Aviva and I like to go there to shop and get dinner. So here are some pics I took yesterday….

A Malibu Beach (and a video of a seal)

We decided to take my mother-in-law, Lil, and one of my brothers-in-law, Brian, to a beach in Malibu (Beasti Beach to be specific). We spread the blanket and Lil and Brian laid down. Aviva and I strolled the beach. We came upon some guys looking at something in the rocks – turned out it was […]

A few photos around LA

I’ve been taking a few pictures around LA the last three weeks – I finally had time to clean them up in Photoshop; work has been really busy with year end financials, but I’ve finally gotten all that cleaned up, hopefully I’ll have more time to take pictures, work on music, and blog. So here […]

Photos from our trip to Palm Desert

We drove out to Palm Desert last week to visit with Aviva’s mom and her brother and family. We took the dogs – our dog sitter couldn’t watch our dogs at the last minute. That’s not bad – we’ve brought them before, we get a room that allows pets at the Best Western and use […]

Caravaggio and Drawing Surrealism at LACMA

We decided to spend the day at LACMA visiting the Caravaggio and Drawing Surrealism shows. Both shows were very interesting, and I took some photos of some of the works (if there wasn’t a no-photo icon, you could snap a pic). Afterwards we went to Ancient Adornments, a shop that only does piercing – Aviva […]
