Can creativity change the world? 🌎
I believe so and Im sure the artist whose work is in this exhibition in nyc inside Moynihan hall in Penn Station would agree.
A while ago I lived inside this little farmhouse. Something about the pureness and Rural feel took me back there. A simpler time.
I think it is the hand. They are notoriously hard to draw or paint. It is so realistic that I didn’t notice it and instead the piece just vibes with me. Beautiful hand. Beautiful Art. Amazing details. Yea…if art can fill ones heart with peace ✌🏾 and help us to empathize ❤️ with one another, it can certainly change the world

I'm interested in the way a physical piece of art functions in today's world as a simple but powerful communication tool.
Sometimes it's just a simple grounding- a hand holding oranges, and yet the world-wide reach still exists because when someone stands right here in front of this work, the viewer and the artist get to communicate. Right here. Right now.
Art behaves as a radical conduit and connector in this way.
This notebook has been taken apart and put back together with different materials- the paper replaced with canvas; the neat stitching replaced with bulky blue thread. It's an exploration or exercise on how sometimes the only way to shift our understanding or enact change, is to first deconstruct what is in front of us, so that it can be put back together in a new way.

Heading back to Baltimore from New York is significantly more pleasant now because the Moynihan Train Hall is a vast improvement over the old waiting area in Penn Station. I haven’t been able to fully try the new food hall mainly because we leave in the mornings, but I do get a lox spread sandwich from H&H Bagels to enjoy on the train. (I tried the smoked salmon sandwich, but it isn’t as good, is more awkward to eat, and is more expensive.)

Cheating on Amtrak
Notes on some atypical travel along the Northeast Corridor.
I did something Wednesday that I used to scoff at: I went from Washington to New York via plane, not train. Then I opted for the same mode of travel to get from NYC to Boston, another route on which door-to-door travel times can be shorter by rail than air. I feel a little dirty about those less-than-green travel choices, but I had my reasons this time. Cost was foremost among them. Amtrak…

Adieu to 2023
2023 is history. Not that I will look back upon it fondly. Too many scary things reared their ugly heads during the year gone by. I fear though, that 2024 will disappoint us even more. November 2024 will be a water shed moment for the US. And I am not hopeful. But enough of these dark thoughts. It has been quite a while since the last blog appeared here. I just never seemed to find the time and…

I’m currently in Baltimore for a family reunion. It’s the first time that I’ve traveled with my mom as an adult, and the first time that mom has traveled anywhere in quite some time. Sadly, posts will be a bit sporadic until I return — and of course, you should expect some photos from Charm City. You might recall, that the other day, I had an appointment to pick up a press card from NYC Media…

Cheers !
I haven’t posted for quite some time so I thought I would share an image of this friendly chap. My wife and I were in Manhattan to meet up with friends and fellow blogger Laurie and her husband Greg who were in from Virginia for the weekend. You can see Laurie’s blog – here  He was our bartender at the pub at the Moynihan Train Hall in NYC. I wish I would have got his name but he did mention he…

Can creativity change the world?
This was the title that caught my eye as I was zipping through Moynihan Hall in Penn Station Which is in Manhattan NYC. The artworks in the glass case which encompassed the exhibit stopped me in my tracks.
When I discovered that the exhibit was based on art that was created in moleskin Journals I could not resist. I had to take in this moment and document it so I could share it with you. These are some of my favorite pieces from this dope ass exhibit.

Friendly reminder that Moynihan Train Hall has and always will be better than any airport you could fly from.

Your list of Heavy Rail lines in the US made me remember all over again how much I hate Penn Station.
I guess Moynihan Train Hall is pretty, but still.
Well good news, Penn Station is supposed to be getting Renovated sooner or later . But till then, it will remain a man made hellscape

Through two years of building back my business-travel schedule, one frequent destination from the Before Times had remained off my calendar until this week: New York. My overdue reunion with NYC allowed an equally belated inspection of Penn Station’s Moynihan Train Hall (one thing I didn’t expect was how great it would be to see the sky through that glass ceiling as I ascended the escalator from…
