Meet New Artist

In the Torpedo Factory, which is a fascinating place to explore, we met an artist, Nathan Leibowitz. He, with several others, occupies a corner studio of the third floor, with a broad view on the Potomac River. I always feel a bit of trepidation while entering artists' studios there - weird mixture of being an intruder of the creative process, a voyeur. But Nathan made it easy - he smiled and invited us  to admire a view of the river, which is surely breathtaking. We talked and laughed, and left with two small works of his and with a joke.

Why do we call seagulls 'seagulls'?     Because they are gulls who live by the sea.
But what if they will live by the bay?  They will be called...? Got it?     Bagel..

Below are his work, and he has a website Nathan Leibowitz
