numbers and sketches

as i write this out, i'm thinking that i'm one of the few that looks at this blog with any regularity .. unless most don't provide feedback .. also, i think i produce too much stuff .. came across some sketches from an unknown period of time in my life .. i've attched one for your viewing pleasure .. thank you for reading .. bye-bye

portable & royalty free

i was thinking today that i have been painting a lot of images of places i would like to visit or live .. in fact, most have been places that i have briefly visited from time to time .. i was also thinking that i would like to embark on a new series called 'royalty free' and extolling the notion of immortalizing the already immortal copyright free imagery available to us all .. i found some NYC skyline shots and an attractive lighthouse that would be nice to etch with paint .. enjoy the warm sun out there .. cheers ..

travel web upgrade

i just updated the 'travel' web portal on joedimino.com - click here to view - this includes a map of existing and future drop offs, along with a page of feedback on the project .. enjoy

textured jazz pic

in the span of 24 hours, i have relcaimed the coveted photo that i never took .. karen over at KCPT was nice enough to snap a pic of the 'textured jazz' piece that will be up in the new spring acution .. cheers

auctions and lost pics

on saturday, an individual from KCPT came out to pick up a piece for their spring auction .. it's a long ago piece that has an old saxaphone with wiring coming out of the end of it .. after the piece was picked up, I realized it was one of the very, very few paintings I have that does not have a picture of it .. i was going to post it for your viewing pleasure, but no such picture exists .. instead, you can see it when the auction is aired on the television during their spring drive during April 27 - May 5 .. in the meantime, I'm working on getting an auction employee to send me over a pic .. for now you can see the tax receipt and just imagine .. cheers
