I am very much still in the tweaking stage, trying out a few different themes, activating widgets, etc. Oh, and uploading past work. I will post there, as I add new pieces to my Etsy shop as well. This new blog will remain as an ongoing archive of my work.
Check it out and subscribe to the RSS feed, if you are interested in seeing what new things I am creating. And to get in on the regular give aways…
It was a goal to set up an Etsy shop by the end of the year. I am happy to say that it is finally up and active. I have listed 3 blank, handbound books and a painting so far. More will be forthcoming during the week. I have small edition silkscreen prints and a few other items. Most of this existing work was done a number of years ago and will be priced reasonably. I want to move it out and make both physical and mental room to create more!
I most welcome any feedback, especially on the shop policies, bio and such. Writing about myself is not a very comfortable or fun thing for me to do.
Please take a look and let me know what you think. There is a permanent link just to the right as well. These photos were taken way back in April of this year, so you can see how long it has taken me to get in gear… It’s a relief to have done it…

Rest and Motion 1998 Monoprint/collage on waxed paper 11 1/8" x 17" Matted and framed - Private Collection
I have decided to create monoprints and rework them with drawing and collage. I really enjoy this type of media. The image here is just one such work. It is larger than a postcard, but shows the basic concept. I’ll be including my son and daughter in the process, if they are so inclined. They may do their own work or participate in the project.
So far, I have purchase some watercolor paper and sized it to sheets that will be further torn down to size, after the printmaking process. Reworking them will be at the postcard level. Each will be unique and follow the guidelines put forth for the project.
I’ll be posting the finished images here before mailing them, so check back. I think that Labor Day weekend will be my first opportunity to get to work.
This week’s Macro Monday is a guest feature. These are photos by my daughter, Gurunam Atwal, playing with her new DSLR. Who knew our front yard contained all these interesting images? Click for a larger view.

And from outside the 'bug's life' theme...
This week’s Macro Monday brings up photos from last summer and a visit to Tired Dog Ranch. I wish that this old neck and back could tell us their stories… Click for a larger view.
