Passing Through

Selections from the #mybeautifulcommute series, digital watercolors (Waterlogues) made from iPhone captures. Most easily seen on my Tumblr here.
The location is a segment of my westbound commute home, where CA60 passes under I-5 northbound, the 101, I-5 southbound, I-10 eastbound, then unites with I-10.
At 7pm, it usually isn’t too terrible until the merge with the westbound I-10, just east of downtown LA. The forms of the overpasses zoom by in the blink of an eye, and every day it’s different.

Some of these images will be on exhibit at TAG Gallery, July 11 – August 5.
If you’re in LA, the Opening Reception is July 15, 5-8pm.

Solitude

As a few of you know, I like to do solo road trips.
I LIKE being by myself.

West Texas is one of the more lonely corners of the US, and I find it consistently inspiring.
Here’s a shot from my 2014 circumnavigation of the US:

US 90, Texas, southbound between Valentine and Marfa
