I feel this drawing on my workbench sums up the year. It’s been evolving for 12 months and has been the center of my professional joys,fears,frustrations, failures and accomplishments. Cheers to everyone out there struggling to accomplish their own goals within a timeline they have no control over.

Mia, Brian and Nate working out a Patterns’ pop up installation for the Piatt Esplanade Groundbreaking #workinprogress#finished #groundbreaking #pittsburgh #esplanade

Last Sunday closed out Brooklyn x Pittsburgh “The Industry of Art” curated by Eric Shiner with Associated Artists of Pittsburgh, Brooklyn Waterfront Artist Coalition. Patterns of Meaning artists AJ Colins, Mia Tarducci, Nate Lucas, Brian Engel and myself installed a truckload of the Patterns’ collection ceramics, paintings, wood work, glass and foundry patterns - just a taste of what we have on display everyday at Patterns Workshop, Gallery and Exhibit Hall in the Energy Innovation Center, Pittsburgh PA.

We can build beautifully.
Basílica de la Sagrada Família is the most powerful example of what we are capable of. Buildings don’t have to be boring boxes. More than 135 years after laying the cornerstone construction continues.
The argument of cost is irrelevant. Generating $130million annually from visitors the basilica funds its own construction.
