Will has been continuing to head west to work on site on his series of farm animals, especially of "Captain" and "Fred" the Irish mid-weight draft horses.

The bicoloring has been an engaging technical challenge.

USRowing Youth Nationals, June 2016

June 9, 2016

Will took a day trip to West Windsor, New Jersey, to watch his older pair of granddaughters row to 5th place in their Lightweight Double.

Retired from racing in 2014, he nonetheless enjoyed the view from the sidelines (at least for the day).

Pictured here with grandson Soren.

Highland Cow, May 2015

Concord, MA.  Will went looking for the big Holstein bull, but it didn't want to come to the drawing-accessible side of the pasture.  Discretion triumphing, Will did not climb in  for a closer look (despite "Jim's" reputation for docility).

This one, however, found the carrots enough of a temptation to wander over for a closer investigation of the man with the drawing pad...

Irish Mid-Weight Draft Horse, Drawing ©2015 by William P. Reimann
Will did a lot of preliminary drawings, and there's a series of completed works that we're all enjoying very much.  Here's one of the mid-size ones (original pencil image, 16" x 14")

Take a Seat: The Chair Show

3/18/2015

0 Comments

 
William P. Reimann Chair, as presented by Christopher Reimann, March, 2015"My Dad made this for me when I was just a pup. Come see it and a bunch of other cool chairs at Featherstone this weekend or anytime they are open in the next month."
Featherstone Center for the Arts
Open Daily from 12pm-4pm 
through Wednesday April 8th

We all have them- they live in our homes, offices, on the porch, and at the beach.

So many of us on island use repurposed materials and structures to create warm comfortable spaces. We want to see how you the artist can find inspiration in the daily often over looked object: “The Chair”. Whether it’s painting, drawing, sculpting, woodworking, welding, reupholstering or using unconventional materials, we encourage all artists to think outside the box. Don’t be shy! Let’s create our own usable, or non usable chair, to plant our bodies or merely for decoration.

Opening Reception: Sunday, March 15th 4pm - 6pm


With record falling snow in Massachusetts this year, it's been quite the winter of shoveling!  Break out (if you're in the area) and enjoy this informal presentation of some really cool chairs, right next to the recently iced-out lagoon on Martha's Vineyard Island...

Irish Mid-Weight Draft Horse
Will has been getting out to Lincoln, MA this early summer to draw from a trio of these beauties who are being boarded out there.  I'm looking forward to seeing what results, but in the meantime... a few pictures of the great beasts themselves, and a note:

"Fascinating to see how the hoof is still evident, even with all the fur disguising things. Also fascinated with the seemingly completely arbitrary splotches of black and white. They like both apples and carrots, but get a little pushy about it. wr"

Saving those bits of scrap wood

Okay, so maybe it can be worth it, saving all those little bits of scrap lumber...

My brother sent along this photo, commenting that Will "made this out of a scrap piece of 1x4 fir."

Turned out pretty well, I'm thinking!

15 Carp. Pennsylvania Slate, 36" Square. Two stage sandblast.

This is not the most elegant way to relaunch this blog, but at least it shows the beautiful, engaged work that Will has been caught up in over the winter.

Much beautiful new stonework - more, and better, pictures will follow.
