Brenda Massie of Hagedorn Foundation Gallery curates what will be one of the most colorful - literally, and we hope, figuratively - exhibitions this year. Landon Nordeman's photography populates the first floor and my paintings the second from January 29th until March 21st, 2015.
Please mark the January 29th reception date; come with and wearing your brightest.

on loving france
I can't guess how this place couldn't get under one's skin. This is a little illo I made on the subject for an illustrated memoir.

On a windy day in December:
seven years
I've posted 2,055 times over these seven years starting on November 1st, 2006. That's crazy - like life. It's been a full gallop of ups and downs - haha (haha as George Saunders would write). Thank goodness for the full entertainment and engagement of looking at world, thinking about it and, of course, making stuff. I'm so content to work and live on this little farm for another seven. No seventh inning stretch. No itch.
The
writer(artist) should never be ashamed of staring. There is nothing that does not require his attention. - Flannery O'Connor
Much gratitude to those that inspire, teach, lead, challenge and spur me on a daily basis (with some of you working it on a minute to minute basis).
oh, happy day!

Went to see Clare Rojas exhibition and performance (same durn girl, different name) last night; part of SCADstyle week.

Lotta people are talking good-riddance-to-2009; I kinda liked it. I like "niner" years.
