Lead By Imagination

Look! Up in the sky. It's a plane, it's a... passenger drone? Yes, in Dubai this reality of traveling from one rooftop to another has already come to pass. Frank Lloyd Wright designed a similar system in his Broadacre Community Plan. We could be calling Uber from a rooftop downtown to take us to the airport or to lower Manhattan from the Rockefeller Center, if only people would have taken Frank more seriously. Maybe it sounds like a Star Trek episode, but passenger drones are a THING now. Make no mistake. The Ehang 184 can carry people from one tall building to another. All you have to do is call from your cell phone and charge the ride to your account. That's one creative solution to urban traffic. The bike still has a smaller ecological footprint. Still, a drone does have some advantages, I have to admit.

Today I sent my Sketchbook to the Brooklyn Art Library, NY, where you can go to visit it anytime. The deadline for this year's project is April 30, and I mailed it off a few days early. Every page contains a watercolor on tea bag paper. I drank the tea. Let the paper of the tea bags dry each time. When it dried thoroughly I painted on the paper with watercolor. The sketchbook contains a chronological story of tea time during the sketchbook project period of about 6 months. This page has the only tea bag with tag attached. The image is inspired by a tile in my shower. Sometimes I drink tea in the shower. In part 2, the afternoon comes to an end and leans into evening. A good time for tea. We have owls and sometimes I can hear their hoots. All together there are 16 watercolors on tea bags in this sketchbook.
