A Brand New Waterlogue

The image is not new. The technology is.

Compare to the 2014 version:

Waterlogue has improved over the past five years! There is now a desktop version, which is even better than the phone app [* I received a complementary copy of the software for being a beta tester].
I've decided to rework the 2014 On the Edge waterlogues and upload them to Saatchi Art, with the possibility to apply for The Other Art Fair LA, to be held September 5-8, 2019 in Santa Monica at Barker Hangar. The deadline is this coming Friday, so we'll see how far I get. Maybe I'll choose my favorite 25 for starters.

The original set (of which 41 remain) will travel to Troy, NY next month to be displayed at my 45th high school reunion!

Prada Marfa, 2014

The duo behind Prada Marfa, Michael Elmgreen and Ingar Dragset, are giving a lecture tonight in downtown LA.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stop at PM (which is actually 26 miles NW of Marfa in Valentine) during my 2014 road trip.

Here are some photos from 2014:

New Funding Opportunity

Meet my newest funding idea: my Patreon subscription site!

I took some of the perks from my initial 2014 IndieGogo crowdfunding campaign and reconfigured them a bit:

If you happened to contribute in 2014 for an artwork perk, and never chose your image [you know who you are], you may do so at any time! Operators are standing by to fulfill your request! Leave a comment and I'll get back to you.

What you can get for as low as $1 a month:

Exclusive peeks behind the scenes -- virtual studio visits, process videos perhaps
Advance looks at new artwork before it becomes public -- work I start doing now won't be visible elsewhere until April
Listing (with link) on my On the Edge blog
Thank you card snail mailed to your home

I want to give a shout-out to Tui Snider for inspiring me to make this a thing.
We met virtually during the first or second A-Z Blog Challenge.
I've been following her on Facebook and Instagram since then.
She has a really fun list of perks on her Patreon -- go check it out!
