Decisions, Decisions, Decisions (6/30):
I'm
waiting to hear from the juror in the exhibit in Overland Park, Kansas
- then I can decide what to enter into the next five watercolor shows
I'm considering. I need to keep track of which paintings I'm entering
in each show. I also want to save my best for WFWS in Denver next year
- I can't enter anything into Western Fed that's been in a national
show.

New Watercolor (6/26):
I
started on a new watercolor this morning. It's called "Three Mudders" -
it shows three women fixing the adobe wall at the Rancho's Church in
Taos. Please notice the play on words - Mother's vs Mudder's.

The N-Word (6/22):
Marc
Maron, the comedian and host of the popular interview podcast WTF with
Marc Maron, made news because of a single word. President Barack Obama
used the dreaded "N-word" in a thoughtful conversation about racism in
this country. BIG DEAL !!! - racism is still here and fester it's ugly
head daily even when cloaked as something else. Sometimes it is hidden
- too often not - but, it's still a major factor in our lives. So,
talking about it is a start at getting rid of it. The word was not used
in my classroom without consequences - even thought my black vice
principal thought it OK if it was pronounced differently. Thank you Mr.
President for raising the issue again - We need to discuss it again and
again.
