Summer Reading
As promised, I’m trying to catch up on my reading list. Then, I must knuckle down and finish my three-parter on starting, transforming and finishing idea, with possible related theme of Story in Art, which I will eventually convert to a Keynote presentation, for a possible standalone lecture. I have first drafts of all…

WC2018ICYMI
I never wrapped up the World Cup, and though this one will not fade from memory soon- there’d been late drama and close games every day, few favorites (even France) ever seemed safe, and few minnows hopeless. Really, one of them made the Final! I’m loathe to waste my previously recorded thoughts. So I separated…

My Favorite Mistakes
“Did you know when you go It’s the perfect ending” Sheryl Crow, My Favorite Mistake “My Favorite Mistake” is the title of my list of books I thought would be great, but couldn’t finish, or even start. I’m not bored with writing blurbs and reviews, but do they really tell as much about my…

Mo’ Activity
My interview with Westword’s Susan Froyd is up on the site today. It’s in association with Month of Printmaking Colorado, along with several other printmakers: Jennifer Ghormley, Taiko Chandler, Sue Oehme. It’s a privilege to be included in this series, and it’s a joy to be involved in the burgeoning Denver printmaking community, which for reasons…

It makes for a busy schedule. “Master Printer and Print Educators of Colorado”, McNichols Building 3rd Floor, January 13-April 8 : This one has…
