Spring has officially sprung, the #nasturtiums are back at the #GardnerMuseum, and this year they are more riotous and unholy than I’ve ever seen them. As always, I 10/10 recommend you get there ASAP to see them before they’re gone. #bosarts

A few more collaged postcards from my art factory! I've got a lot of OLD maps that I'm starting to use in collage - what do you think?

A truly astounding evening at the theater. When you can, on a Wednesday evening, make me forget the play is three hours long, you’ve done bloody well. #bosarts #stereophonic

Just for the hell of it, made a couple of small copper wire bowls. They're about grapefruit sized. (Hard to photograph properly, apologies). Fun to do, but hard on the hands!

Old sketchbook! Searching for inspiration, I found this. These are messy but what is a sketchbook for, if not to mess around?

Experiments in collage! I keep things I make, even when they don't work out - they may become parts of future collages...

Random post: it was a cookie box. Then I unfolded it and collaged onto it. Thanks for looking!

10. November 2025 — Orquesta Sinfónica de Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 led by Maximiano Valdés, and with cuatrista Luis Sanz. I have never seen an audience so excited and so energized in Symphony Hall. Just being there was an experience.

5. April 2025 — soprano Melissa Wimbish in Poulenc's La Voix Humaine, part of Music for Food's concert. She was so riveting, even though I didn't understand a word of French nor there was subtitles, I was captivated. Brava!
