A murder of crows


A little while back, I set up a bird feeder on a post in my backyard. I thought it was high enough to keep the squirrels away, but that didn't happen. Also, the local murder of crows (about 30) showed up on a regular basis, so I feed them larger table scraps and put out bread crumbs on the ground for the smaller birds. Crows have appeared in my paintings and sculptures before and I'll probably use this opportunity to paint them again.

First Post!

Here we go - first post for The Quirk Museum.

In the closing days of 2007, I finally figured that I might actually have the time to keep a blog going and hopefully have something worthwhile to say. We'll see about that.

The goal of this blog is to give people a little insight into the creative process and to promote the Quirk Museum web site. The goal of the museum is to launch my sputtering career as an artist into the stratosphere, so that I can quit my day job and have more time for art, music, photography, movies, etc...
