Long Time, No See
Today is a day of remembrance. At the same time, I have to think about other things or I will get too depressed. When it comes to our national situation everyone knows exactly what should be done, of course, and that is very easy when you are not the one making the decision. The scary answer, however, may be that there is no right path to be chosen.
Yes, I've been away for a bit. The show in Tierra Del Mar went as well as could be expected and more things are coming, including a one-artist show on October 27th. You can join my in Pacific City for that one if you are interested. I will probably do Oregon paintings rather than abstract art, but you never know. I'm taking suggestions at this point.
Of course, I've figured out by now that few will ever understand my work. I just have to get used to it. This is particularly true of the abstract work. The average person is clueless. Oh well.
Oh, did I say I got a camper van? It's a little easier on gas than the motor home. Compact, though. If it isn't one thing it's another. It's good enough for overnight trips but the mileage is still *AWFUL* ..just better than the motor home. I wish someone would donate a VW van camper or a toyota or something that makes it easier to travel when gas is 3 dollars a gallon.
I've been rescuing feral kittens lately. Cat flu and other diseases have been killing off feral cats, along with an overpopulation of coyotes. So I've saved some half dead kittens I'm working on reviving. I took them to the vet and got antibiotics and worm medicine. Of course, next I'll have to find homes for them. I'll try to get some pictures in the near future.
Again, it's always something. But even as I look back with some sadness in the recognition that summer ends early in this part of the world, I have some anticipation of the peace that comes with the bad weather.
