I don’t typically do resolutions, but there are few things that fell off the board this year that I would like to make sure I stick to. As I look ahead I wish you all a Happy New Year and hope that our paths cross in the best of ways.—Dominick

“We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives…not looking for flaws, but for potential.” …. Happy New Year one and all! …. Above […]
View post →For most countries the official day of resetting the annual clock is on January 1st. It’s a symbol of renewal and an opportunity to plant new seeds of thought, a new way of seeing the light in things … So in keeping with tradition I’ve taken some time this week to reflect on 2015 in […]
View post →Yesterday was the first of the year and we wanted to do something special with the kids to honor the day. So we took them to see the Holiday Train Show at the NYBG. It was as beautiful as ever and the kids were amazed when they saw “Thomas” whizzing by on the railroad […]
View post →This past Saturday morning, despite the FREEZING weather, I decided to go over to Main Street in Flushing, Queens, and draw the lunar new year parade. There were two distinct sections to the parade: one was Chinese and the other was Korean. It was so interesting to see the differences, graphically, between the two cultures. […]
View post →In the years around 2000 BC, the Babylonian New Year began with the first New Moon (actually the first visible cresent) after the Vernal Equinox (the first day of spring). Today for most countries the official day of celebration was marked 3 days ago. It’s a symbol of renewal and an opportunity to plant new […]
View post →A day or so in, 2014 so far has gotten off to a slow start. Not being one for resolutions I haven’t properly planned. Like Janus I revel in the turning of time. However, looking forward I long for a slightly different view. It is changing rapidly, but in first view the old hang around […]
View post →Can’t say I wasn’t extremely happy to see the snow start falling on Tuesday night. As we drove to make our rounds yesterday the cold air had held the snow to the branches. This morning, a little more before the clouds parted. Winter is upon us.—Dominick
View post →I tried out some new settings on the Brushes app to make this drawing of a ginkgo leaf and another leaf, which I’m not sure of the name. But the ginkgo leaves seem to hold on the longest to their trees in my neighborhood. When the ginkgo leaves start to disappear I know it’s coming […]

View post →As 2011 nears I think of the old year ending and the new year approaching – what will it bring?! Janus is the Roman god of gates, doorways, beginnings, endings, and time. That’s a lot! Janus, of course, January, the first new month of the new year. Janus has two heads looking in opposite directions […]

View post →As 2009 comes to an end I, like Janus, take time to reflect on the many lessons learned this past year and I take time to consider the art in my future. I’m incredibly excited for all of 2010’s possibilities! Wishing you all a safe, healthy and happy new year. drawing by Greg Betza

For most countries the official day of celebration is marked just 2 days away from today, on January 1st. It’s a symbol of renewal and […]
