It was called an unveiling, but it was really a dedication, a symbolic presentation to the town of Ivanhoe, a “Here, this is for you and you are welcome, be proud!” (I wanted to add, “and don’t let it get egged!”) Lots of hoorah, thank you to this personage, thank you to that personage, acknowledge […]
MURAL “UNVEILING” TODAY
In case you are curious, this is some of the area around Ivanhoe. I really love it there, which you may have figured out. Of course I also loved living in Lemon Cove, and now I love living in Three Rivers. (Don’t move here—remember that we are fat, have diabetes, the air is bad, and […]
MURAL UNVEILING
“Unveiling” is obviously a euphemism here. Murals are highly visible, and no one threw a tarp over the one on the side of the Ivanhoe library. (However, someone did throw an egg on it and tomorrow I will go touch it up. Sigh.)
A Presentation
Last century I drew this picturesque church in Tulare and used the image in a set of Tulare County landmarks notecards. Yesterday I finally got to see the interior of the church when I made a presentation to a group of folks who meet for lunch and a presentation once a month. (I don’t know […]
Holiday Bazaar TOMORROW
After a week of rain, sunshine is predicted for Saturday.

Why is this chick so smiley? Because: A. Her favorite dress still fits […]
RECEPTION TONIGHT!
The gallery director and her granddaughter hung the show with my eager and curious assistance. This gallery seems dark inside, but the lights on the art are terrific. Carpet on the walls looks odd at first glance, but it is surprisingly effective in preventing the need to continually patch and repaint holes. It’s a great […]
AROUND HERE…and Sometimes a Little Farther
TWO WEEKS FROM TODAY! Apparently my subtitle “…and Sometimes a Little Farther” was too long for the show title.
Your Central California Artist Walked to White Chief
Walked? Hiked! I carried a daypack with water and lunch, so I’m calling it a hike. So what, who cares? I went 7 miles on my numb feet, that’s what. Yea! I can still hike (maybe not far, but I’ll take what I can get here.) Let’s just have photos, with minimal commentary and zero […]
Last Few Days, Last Preview of Simply Home
My 2-1/2 month show, Simply Home, at CACHE is almost over. I’ve done my best to show you all the entire exhibit so that if you live far away, you can see my entire current body of work. Here are the final three oil paintings. CACHE HOURS Friday, 10-4, Saturday, 11-4, Sunday, noon-4 and then […]
