Mary, I forgot you and your lovely portrait of Ben. Believe me I noticed, just brain dead sometimes.
Janel, Thank you so much, I see you've been busy too. You will only continue to get better. Sometime we should meet in person.
Heidi, Feast and Famine is such a powerful work. Congrats on the orders, I hope you will post the bronze. My fingers want to do the work, not read about it. But I'll read anyway, been working on this right hand thing and painted for a little while today.
Okay Mike.....thanks for the giggle!
Did you know that I was a lhama girl at the Circus World Museum in Baraboo when I was a teenager. Baraboo was the summer home of the Ringling family. My mother made costumes, and did custom tailoring for Jean Ringling. We didn't have all the fantastic art, but they did store and work on all the circus wagons there. I used to hang out with the people who did the restoration and it is extremely delicate work. Hope you're enjoying Sarasota.
