4/19

my art ideas are getting lost in these notes — I still haven’t come up with a note system — I keep going back to the bound books — maybe there is no good method — the idea of a clip board came to mind — maybe one of the bound clip board type things — and just carry a few pages with me at all times— pages that could be categorized etc


thinking of a series of 8x8 panels — a series of 13x13 panels — a series of tall pieces with nice bases — start with the wood and maybe go to brass or copper later — go through all my art ideas and try to get some system or organization


I need to get some schedule down so that I concentrate on things that might get me somewhere — I’m leaning toward some sort of booklet thing — some set of pages


the panel series is what is on my mind now — what do I have to do — step by step — get the garage ready


what about the job issue that I keep avoiding — I should put it aside until the end of April
so what am I going to do today — I should work with photoshop to try to get a better handle on how that works

another beautiful day

most of my art ideas — dead bulbs etc — could work into the grid system ideas — maybe some larger pieces — for collections — the vacuum tubes etc — possibly a small grid for the tubes — it seems there should be something more — but the idea is the less — the object in and of and for itself — they could be in any number — any sized grid (up to the number of things that I have) — each back could have one or several pieces

some textual material to go along with the pieces — the tubes could also be taken apart for jewelry material — but we have enough of that

wood blocks
all the pieces of my past — the book plate idea etc

all the different note systems i’ve tried
all the software i’ve used
<1/23/17 ? separate the art into one column or area needs a lot of annotation>
