Hi Tom,
Yes, I am sorry that I didn't get to meet you either, although you were in the same room just accross the (40 foot) table. I am still clueless as to who half the attendees were. Maybe someone can add captions to these pictures.
Best,
Garth

Thanks Garth!
That was indeed little moi, in the white shirt, having a smashing time. Where else can you go, except the Forum, and discuss the relative merits of Micheal Hardy paints vis-a-vis Blockxs and have someone know what you are talking about.
I just attended the dinner, and not the conference, so I am not informed enough to comment.
Marvin, one of his students and I hit the Boston art hot spots, those being the Boston Museum and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.

Circles and rotundas
I was very flattered that Sharon offered to chauffeur myself and Haleh around Boston. I considered this to be no less significant than being given a tour of the Vatican by his eminence Pope John.
After leaving the hotel for the Newbury Street Galleries, Sharon skillfully negotiated the maze like Boston roadways filled with lunatic drivers (Mass. has the highest insurance rates for good reason). Anyways, after about 20 minutes we found ourselves back at the hotel.
Eventually, after making sure we passed every road construction location (NO Left turn permitted!!!) within the city limits we reached our goal, The Museum of Fine Arts!
We did have a blast getting to know each other, the high point (art-wise) being the Boston Museum's inner rotunda, circumvented by beautiful works from Boston School painters such as Tarbell, DeCamp, Benson and of course my all time favorite William McGregor Paxton. (Although I took pictures ,the Paxton is a nude so I won't be posting it here.  ) The low point was the discovery that the museum had removed Paxton's masterpiece, The New Necklace. ???????
Another significant highlight was seeing Sharon's beautiful life size pastel at the Copley Society on Newbury St. Wow!
This day was a great sendoff for the conference and one I won't ever forget. The best part, however, was getting to know Sharon.

Garth--
Thanks for the memories....
There were so many there--including YOU--that I didn't get to meet and speak to, but maybe next year. Have corresponded with Jim Riley and others, and he was but a few feet away, but it didn't happen. Sorry, Jim!
Thanks to Cynthia for mounting such a convivial event...
Best to all--TE
