1950's Western Themed Bedspread Design
Since the "Dracula" production I am working on starts out in a young boys bedroom in the 50's, I was asked to create an image to cover the mattress on the bed prop that appears on stage in the beginning.
By combining multiple linocut images, i've created my version of a 1950's Western themed bedspread.

NEW ADDITION TO THE FAMILY
Brandon and I recently added a new pup to the family. Mimzy, (her name prior to adoption), was looking for a new home and I had been scouring the JRT adoption and rescue sights looking for a female pup under a year old. 2 weeks into my search, her image popped up. I discovered that she was in Boston, contacted her parents and scheduled a trip to Ct. to pick up my parents truck for the 2.5, (each way), hour drive in the rain.
Her family had a new baby and it seems that Mimzy was none to pleased to be sharing the spotlight with a baby in addition to the other small JRT in the home.
She's an amazing little girl, 11 months old and the tiniest of Jack Russell Terriers I've seen in quite some time. She's still learning how to walk on a lead, it would appear that she didn't have a lot of experience outside in general so all of the noises and smells here in the city and all of the kids from the 2 grammar schools across the street are a true test to her adapting skills. Her walks are getting easier each time and on a wonderful note, within one day, Mimzy learned how to "sit" on command. It's only a hop skip and jump until she's walking herself.
B and I are grateful to have found the perfect match for the both of us.

DRACULA STAGE PRODUCTION - BALTIMORE MARYLAND
I was in Baltimore last weekend to work with Choreographer/Director Scott Rink of DanceRink on his stage adaptation of a radio play version of "Dracula". The weekend included prop building; including sewing slip covers for 6' x 2.5' x 1.5' pieces of foam, painting the first of these with my "wood grain" linocut images and getting a sneak preview of the choreography for the piece. The show opens up for a short run at Theatre Project in Baltimore towards the end of October, and it looks like it's going to be an amazingadaptation.
