just chairs

i'm a bit crazy about chairs
their lines
how each one has a personality
their placement can be as fascinating as the chair
they're talking to each other

some initial sketches of my new series
just chairs


then there's the weather
it's been a brutal yet beautiful winter in chicago
 a view from my front sidewalk

my view while running along the lakefront
so liberating to get outside for a run 
felt like such a rebel running in frigid temps
great way to clear the mind

hope you're staying warm wherever you are
and
if you're somewhere warm and sunny
soak up some sun for me

:)
