Cain makes the best home made pumpkin pie!

My house will smell like thanksgiving for days now.

I hope you are enjoying the holiday - take a breath and eat pie.

seeing white...

Woke up this morning to the first blanket of white snow of the season.
As winter crawls in I am looking forward to my upcoming time at the Hermitage Artist Retreat in Englewood FL. I will be catching up on much needed writing, continue to explore the beach with my camera and further revise my lacuna artist book.

on the wall...

(taken on my iphone)

That's me - the orange square on the wall at the Milwaukee Art Museum... the rotation will only be up through the beginning of December. Its really an honor to be on the same wall as some of my idols... Mr. Callahan in particular. Surreal.

Kenyon connection...

Check out the current New York Times Magazine. The article "What is art for?" is about Kenyon College's own Lewis Hyde. Most probably know Hyde's book The Gift. Both are a must read.

skype is great!

sonja and justine by CSR

So last week Justine Reyes is sitting in my living room, visiting from Queens NY and we are on video Skype talking to our friend and illustrator extraordinaire Cristina Sitja Rubio who is living in Berlin. Thanks to this technology the three of us are catching up as if we were all living in San Francisco together again.

Saturday Intermission...

Family Portrait...

None shall sleep...

So last Thursday was a wonderful night in Milwaukee. Jen Davis was in town and gave a lecture to a full house at the Milwaukee Art Museum. Much of the audience were students which was great to see. After the lecture some of us gathered at Milwaukee's own Nessun Dorma. It was a long night to say the least. Above are Kristen, Tara, Justine, Andy, Kevin, Mel, Megan and Jen
As you can tell by my weak camera skills I was having a great time as well!
Good times.

Elated!

The sun will come up tomorrow...
