A small garden in New York City,
hidden away in a corner of Brooklyn
under two dying peach trees,
an artist sits on her grass.
She dreams of figures,  
In distorted beauty,
her beauty,
colors swept over like a wave
they change with the current.
She swats at mosquitoes and nods at raccoons
while sketching her vision into the world
Into the studio she stretches her canvass
and mixes her paint
Underpainting the bones,
Colors make sinew and on and on
Following the current in her mind
The sun sets as the paint dries
In a garden somewhere in Brooklyn.

A short film made of the unparalleled oil painter Jay Miriam-White while she worked in her Brooklyn studio.  I captured a bit of the magic that goes into the creation of her stunning oil paintings. I worked with the video editor and sound engineer Rocko Walker to oversee the edit. I love the result and I hope you do too.

Written, narrated, and filmed by Timothy White, and posted to Maak Haus Magazine. It was filmed with a Canon XL2 MiniDV Cam and edited with iMovie and Adobe Premiere Pro.

One part of a larger interview I had with Dr. Stephen Teich during the Coronavirus Pandemic, in which we discuss his forty year career as a Forensic Psychiatrist in the NYC criminal justice system. Dr. Teich is a native New Yorker who was one of the first doctors permitted to visit China in the 1970's.

We also discuss his accidental career as an investigative journalist and his arrest and deportation from the Phillipines.

Conducted on Zoom and filmed on our respective laptops and on a Canon Xl2 MiniDV Cam and edited with Adobe Premier.
