I'm having a good day. Are you? I admit, I am feeling a lot of pressure to get done at least 50% of what must be done today...and since I am a one man band so speak that pressure lies on my shoulders alone. The good news has percolated down through the hours and so I am still wearing a grin that belies a secret. I want to thank you personally for your support and interest. You help this art to be made and you share it and talk about it and that makes a big difference during the creation process and it finding the right new home. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
OK, lets get a few teasers on the table (hoping to perk up your day with a tinge or intrigue.
1) I did receive, finally, honors I did not know I'd been bestowed*. (*I bet there's a 60% chance that is the only paragraph you've read this afternoon with the word bestowed in it).
2) I have just returned home from 2 back to back events: The inaugural Bucks County plein Air event and Easels in Frederick 2016, my 5th consecutive year. The level of talent and humanity involved produced incredible art and spectacular shows.
3) I have painted some of the best art of my life and witnessed the creation of others.
4) I am swimming with gratitude for the volunteers, organizers, patrons and citizens of the venues I have been to as well as for my friends & neighbors.
5) During my perpetual race to get things done today, I received notice that I am the Informed collector's Artist of the day.
