Paintings of Time and Place

Dipsy and Doodle, Oil on Canvas Soon to be in Italy

I had great fun with this painting.  As with 95% or more of my pieces, I never know the direction they will take.  A veer this way, then that way, maybe straight ahead--only my psyche muse knows the final product and only shares it when the work is done.  This oil on canvas will be in an April exhibit in Bologna along with three other pieces at Galleria de Marchi, 19b.  Reception will be March 30 and exhibit will run until 11 April.

Je lirai en francais Soumission de Michel Houellebecq, Monotype

One of my resolutions for the year:  to finish reading Soumission by Michel Houellebecq, one of my favorite contemporary French authors.  Studying French at The Ohio State University many years ago has brought me much pleasure and continues to do so.  I can read French well and can get by speaking it when in France.   Elementary Particles,  The Possibility of an Island, and The Map and the Territory are among those which I have read.  As for the monotype, could it be a contemporary representation of Houellebecq?  Who knows?  Houellebecq's writing came to mind as I created it.

"Southwest Wisdom," Monotype in Millicent Rogers Miniature Exhibit, February 8-March 3, 2019

One of my latest monotypes included in the Millicent Rogers Miniature Exhibit, February 8-March 3, 2019 with the opening reception February 8, 5:30-7:30, $15.  I do very
few Southwestern images, but because this area is so close to my heart and has been for the past 20 years, every once in a while I create an image in honor of the original inhabitants of our land, those who have inhabited Taos Pueblo for centuries.  So much wisdom in the ways of the people and of the land--we must honor both as we live in the land with its people.
