About raptnrent: I got the name from my keys - R Apt and R Ent for the back door to my apartment and the back door to the house. I liked that they were also words: Rapt, meaning enthralled, riveted, captivated, and Rent, meaning torn asunder, violently wrenched. I thought it made for an interesting juxtaposition, open to all kinds of interpretations.

“Are we there yet?”
So here is my painting progress so far. Right now I think it’s at a “stop and contemplate” stage. The scale makes it difficult. At 4 by 5 feet, it takes some distance to take it all in, and my … Continue reading

“Just tap it…”
Our friends at Creative Commons reminded us a while ago that there is a #GIFItUp competition going on. So I thought I’d try something with this Salvator Rosa image from the Art Institute of Chicago: A warrior sits on a … Continue reading
