Steven Heller's Book

Last week Steve Heller sent me my copy of his new book with Lita Talarico, "Graphic -- Inside the Sketchbooks of the World's Great Graphic Designers", which has a couple of spreads with pages from my sketchbook and the paintings of fireplugs around NYC that grew out of them.


If you'd like to see more of the painted portraits and stories that go with each of them, visit the gallery on my public facebook page.





All his life, Parker has been dreaming of the day he gets a standing ovation inside the Shubert theater he stands outside of.


Here's what he fancies Variety will have to say:


"After Parker ankled as the headliner in last season's boffo hit, the B.O. went from socko to floppo. Now he's back on Broadway, topliner at the whammo tuner at the Shubert and is rumored to be on his way to H'w'd. Anything Parker's in has legs -- except Parker, of course."
The season for shopping is upon us, and mommies and daddies all over the city have to contend with their dawdling tykes.

  1. I like your pipes. I always thought it was interesting how metal can be carved into stuff. I love it when metal also rusts like rusty cogs and railroad nails. I had a rusty pipe the size of a vase with a turn and two holes. I used it as a vase for dried out twisted sticks.

  2. Yeah, I love the look of rusting iron, too. I little while back I was thinking of doing a particularly rusty fireplug, and now your comment has put a bee in my ear; thanks for stopping by and commenting.
