Seeing "American Sublime" with Lee


 Seeing "American Sublime" with Lee
Oil on Wood
8"X10"

Amy Sherald's, "American Sublime" at S.F. MOMA is stunning. 
Sharing it with my good friend made it even sweeter.


It makes you think anything is possible. Inspiration, intention, perseverance, goodness and beauty. For one afternoon Art replaced the rage, greed, and ugliness that fills the air. Hanging on to that.

November 6


 November 6
Oil on Wood
16"X20"

I turned off the news, pundits, and social media.
I took myself outside.
Met a friend for a walk and lunch.

We were wowed by this tree.

I refuse to let anyone ruin what is left of my life.
Connecting with friends and loved ones and doing the things that bring meaning and JOY to Life.
