Every year since 2004 I’ve had only one resolution…”Have More Fun.” I’ve stuck to it faithfully. This year I ‘m adding a few things to the list… Get the Hull archive in order: Sort my own work, including these boxes of work on paper that just came to light: Consider getting a few very old […]

D.E. May at PDX, and on…
R and I jumped into the car today with Irene and Jon and headed to Portland in a TORRENTIAL downpour for the penultimate day of Dan’s show at PDX. Spare, elegant, but juicy. Wish I had made this post at the beginning of the show so you’d have had time to see it. You know, […]
A Quiet Day, A little Drawing…

Drawing as Lampshade Revival…

Art Fair Weekend….
Friday is the first day of the three day art fair in the park here in Salem, all in aid of the Salem Art Association. Thursday night 5 artists sat in the rose garden making drawings to be auctioned later in the evening…after the sponsors ate a BBQ meal…they called the event “Quick Draw”…it was […]
