After several months of hard work, we are wrapping up the amphitheater project I designed and supervised. Other than the landscaping, it's beginning to look very much like my original model.

One of my favorite places for stand-up paddle boarding. I created the preliminary plein air sketch in watercolor on location and painted this finished piece in my studio.

One of my favorite projects for two reasons.

The owner was a lovable tough businessman whose pet parrot had picked up much of his curt language. It would yell "Pick up the f-ing phone Lee!" every time the phone rang. Plus his wife was so charming, intelligent and personable. So great.

The second reason is this was the first house I had Tracy Taylor help with the interior design. One of my best and most talented friends.

How fun the design business can sometimes be.

Here is a challenge. I went to Dalian, China to do interior design on a four story villa overlooking the Yellow Sea. Didn't expect this level of problem solving. In China, it's not unusual for structures to be built of poured concrete, but the errors in this project were daunting. Check out the run and rise on the stairs. Demolition was not allowed, so to build over the top with proper dimensions was the only solution. In the end, this turned into a very beautiful home. Thank God the finish workers were profoundly more talented than the concrete form team.

It's hard to believe it's been 30 years since I spent time with Juan Manuel Fangio. I'll never forget the hair-raising ride with him in one of the original aluminum Mercedes race cars. This is a pictorial biography I created of him for a fundraiser for the orphans of Balcarce Argentina, his most loved cause. He signed this one for me, the last of 250 prints we published. The original hangs in his museum in Argentina.
