Goodness, new blogger, and new posts for me…I’ve been doing a bunch of things for the house, and finally they’re done…DSL came on the 30th and now I just need to start on building a wireless lan for all the kiddies.
Ethan went to Big Sur the past few days, he said it was rad, he Kev and I went skating (maybe this is for the MSAS site…alas, we’ve been displaced now, Josh is the only one left…
Anyway, time is flying and in recent news I’ve talked about possibly taking a leave of absence this coming academic year. I’ll make that decesion in Aug.
My flexibility is really improving, although I haven’t had a chance to lift or jump yet, but I can definitely see improvements.
I also have to get more drawings done this week, and Keep an eye out for new Phaser 300i prints…I’ve got it back from Ithaca *thanks E-Dawg*
Tizz, I’ll be here to listen, anytime.

Pete Ippel, the son of a dancer and a musician, was born in Oak Park, Illinois and has been surrounded by the arts since birth. He moved to Morris, Illinois in 1989 and started to participate in athletics rather than dance. After high school, Pete attended Cornell University where he received a BA in psychology and a BFA in photo / digital art making. He continued to follow his sporting dreams in the high jump, which culminated in a school record leap of 7 feet 1/2 inch in 2001.
In May 2004 he attained an MFA degree in the New Genres department of the San Francisco Art Institute. Presently Pete is a practicing artist whose work is in numerous private collections and has been exhibited in New York, California, and internationally.
Mr. Ippel resides in Working Artists Ventura, a sustainable artist community in southern California. In addition, he teaches art, is a web developer, an active blogger, and still high jumps from time to time.
As a passionate problem solver and a pragmatic optimist, Pete’s art and his life are full of exciting challenges.
