		<title>Read-O-Rama</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What does this have to do with a California artist? It could be called &#8220;California Artist Reads&#8221;.

		<description><![CDATA[Not yet. Looks finished. It isn&#8217;t. It will stay in the studio for awhile so I can evaluate it, refine it, spend some time adding a few more layers, emphasizing the contrast, darkening the darks, and finally, taking a decent photo.]]></description>
