Elena and group’s school performance is a ‘Happening’. The family enjoyed the event along with 7 other performances at the College. This was followed by having some killer tacos in downtown Olympia. A nice evening.

Ocean Fix

•May 18, 2008 • Leave a Comment

As a child, we did not have cable tv, malls or ipods so for entertainment, we hang out by the beach. I remember peeling off sunburned skin all the time. A lot of mangoes, pineapples and coconut. I still go to beach for my ocean fix. The sound of the waves is hypnotic. The video was taken during the fall of 2007 at Ocean Shores, Washington. It’s a 2 hour drive from Seattle on Highway 101 next to Aberdeen.

Seattle Natives 08

One way I kill time during extremely boring meetings is to doodle on my Palm Pilot. I save and later import to PS to work on layers later. I posted these images of Larry H, Flora and the AF kid to PhotoBucket. It is a part of a set of Palm Pilot drawings called “Seattle Natives”. Most of the drawings are based on real people. A slideshow of Seattle Natives features “IOD” as background music and is by Greg Tripi also from PhotoBucket. Check it out!

This video is a slideshow of some of the best images I could gather to capture the landscape and imagery of Philippine Islands. These are some of the best photos taken by some cool photographers. I posted this on YouTube in 2006. The musical credits: Spain by Chick Corea.

The kids during the early 90’s when we lived in the Central District of Seattle. I left the painting (shown above) in a pile of stuff i decided to leave or give away. It’s a large pastel painting on canvas. We were leaving our 6 bedroom rented home into a 2 bedroom tiny apartment. No room for a studio. The kids are all grown and we moved into a slightly larger home. I really miss having a studio in the city.
