So I haven't written much here but I've been writing a lot for the classes I started taking, for work, for my own sanity. I haven't been painting much but I have been doing some drawing. Priya's comment on the last entry is a good push to put some pictures up but we broke our digital camera and I can't find the scanner. Excuses, excuses.

I do at least have (thanks to John Boutet) some pictures of the traffic signal boxes I recently painted.





I have also just begun to get obsessed with an artist, Hugh Pearce Botts , now mostly forgotten but whose work mostly lives in the museum I work at. Botts it seems was a sketch-hunter, a WPA printmaker and a coffee pot patent holder. He's gone now but I'll get a chance to see his sketchbook on Thursday and I suppose, if I'm lucky, someone will someday say that about me.

Life is short, I'm off to live it.
thanks for looking, reading, and sharing car crash stories. I like to think I'm done crashing into the world, hope so at least...
