Today it was somewhere in the mid 50’s which gives me mixed emotions. I love the snow but now it’s gone. I should be depressed about that but the warm weather feels really good too..ha!As for art I hope to have some pictures of some pots that I decorated for a local artist, James Freeman. He’s graciously allowing me to use his studio to play around with some of my designs on his pottery. Wednesday I’m heading over there to pick up some finished pots using a scraffitto technique. Saturday I’m going back to play around using a cuerda seca technique. I’m also currently working on large acrylic painting for the Hidden Lake Gardens Exhibition which starts in February. It’s a large floral which I’m painting in the style of Georgia O’Keefe. I would much rather use oil but I cant seem get over the smell of turpentine which makes me sick. I’m hoping to build a new studio soon with adequate ventilation for oil painting.Next week I install some linoleum relief prints for a three person show at the Image Gallery in Adrian.And, when I’m not working or making art I’m reading. I just finished reading, “The Fly Caster Who Tried to make Peace with the World”, by Randy Kadish. I write reviews for all the fly fishing books I read on Amazon.com
