Big, big sigh of relief. Show hung. Postcards out. Last minute details done. Look at that picture over there (to the right). Sister M and her coffee. We actually SAT down this afternoon to eat. OK, so it was fast food. Thing is we sat. We savored. Slowly. We lingered over coffee. Chatted. Imagine that, just chatted. Like we had nothing better to do. We talked about growing up. About our grandmother. About the family summer cottage on the Long Island Sound.

About my new haircut. Very nice, by the way. A total stranger came up to me in a store today and told me how much she like it.

We did NOT talk about art.

But this is an art blog so let’s talk about art here.  A little tease with a couple more photos. Things I finished the day before the show. Nothing like cutting things a little close, eh? Well, they were almost done, just needed the words. And more wax. They started life as oils on cradled wood. There’s some plaster involved. They’re from the “Portals” series.

Crappy photo alert. Should’ve adjusted the color. Too green.

“Chronicles”

“Messages from Home”  Or maybe it’s just “Messages”.  I don’t remember….
