My dear friends are turning aloft and a barn into an art gallery. Kind of glad I'm being represented here. It's a private exhibition I'm afraid.

More work getting done on the painting in the barn.

My Uncle Lou Keely did not return. He was the rear gunner on AL-H. March 24/25, 1944 Berlin.
This was another terrible night as 72 crews failed to return due to being blown off course and over heavy flak defenses.

Took yesterday off and went on a great boat ride around Pine Island. Got to get to the "Fish Houses" out in Pine Island Sound.

Been busy doing work around the house and not too much artwork. Here's a picture of a king crimson snake that I found outside my studio door the other night. Just remember red and yellow kill a fella

I've had the same bottle of Liquin for over 15 years now. I use it quite a lot for glazing and thinning really thick paint. The colour does not affect the paint at all. But its getting low....

"The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art" has an exhibit of Japanese Woman Ceramists. Its the absolute best thing I have seen in years. If you have ever worked with clay or porcelain you must see this!
