World Trade Center - The Tribute Lights

My favorite rememberance to 9/11 are the Tribute Lights,, shining up into the sky for all to see in all of New York. Here is the view from my window here on Duane Street.

Not your Parents Art

This piece didn't sell when it was exhibited last year, so it was hanging above my sofa for several months. Not sure if it's because people couldn't see what it was about(?) or because they DID see what it was and didn't want it in their home.

I do admit that it is a specific piece that is more appropriate for the bedroom or bath rather than the living room. I've often told people that you can just switch the pictures around (or separate them further apart on the wall) if you don't want your mother to 'figure out' what it is the painting is trying to "say".

Loving all things blue, my ears perked up when hearing the news of the blue rat on CNN: "The same blue food dye found in M&Ms and Gatorade could be used to reduce damage caused by spine injuries, offering a better chance of recovery, according to new research. Researchers at the University of Rochester Medical Center found that when they injected the compound Brilliant Blue G (BBG) into rats suffering spinal cord injuries, the rodents were able to walk again, albeit with a limp.

The only side effect was that the treated mice temporarily turned blue."

How cute is that?

Time Off from the Blog/Journal thing

So much for my intentions of a "posting a day". Since the end of June, my postings have drizzled down to "once in awhile". It's not that I'm not thinking of things to post or write about. I just feel like I'm jumping all over the place and I'm not focused. So much for good intentions. I do like my little corner of Manhattan (Tribeca), and I do enjoy art, so.. let me fire up my camera batteries and hit the streets.
