The passing thoughts, ideas, activities, hopes, dreams, and concepts of an artist. And other stuff just for fun.

I’d consider it a success.

Well, yesterday my very supportive husband and I made the trek out to Point Reyes Station to see my work along with all of it’s new artwork friends at Gallery Route One.

Here’s my artwork!

I was happy to see that my work was among some of the best artwork I have seen in a group show in quite some time.  The show was extremely crowded, but I worked up the courage and elbowed my way through the sea of artists and found myself in a short conversation with Kenneth Baker.  He was cordial and cracked a few jokes to lighten the nerves I’m sure both he and I felt.  I have stepped up one more step on my ladder to being comfortable in my role as an artist.

Sunday was a great day.

On another note:

In celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr. I would like to share one of my favorite photographs of him.

mlkjrPhotographer Paul Schutzer took this photograph in 1961.
