Bodi Tree

I was small as a blade of grass,
You stepped away from me.
I grew bigger, touching sky,
You built around me.
I will be here,
When you are gone

Probably the best Pad Thai in Bangkok. They make about 300 servings of Pad Thai daily. Thanks to a Netflix food documentary for the tip.

ALL IMLS grants restored in every state & territory.

In response to a ruling from a federal judge in Rhode Island, the Institute of Museum and Library Services reinstated all previously canceled grants in every state and territory. It's a huge win for libraries and our communities.

"The reinstatement of all IMLS grants means that libraries across the country will be able to resume vital services for learning, imagination, and economic opportunity. We are breathing a sigh of relief, but the fight is not over." ALA President Sam Helmick. Show up for our libraries, American Library Association.

NEWS: The Institute of Museum & Library Services has restored ALL previously canceled federal grants to libraries, following a ruling by a federal judge in Rhode Island last month.

This is a massive win for libraries & communities in every state & territory!

Surrealist self-portrait painting

Artists are never handcuffed that rigidly to the real world as it is in front of you. Do what works for the painting, not because it is there. The road provides plenty of perspective, the cone color is a distraction that pulls your eye away from the tree landscape.

If I’m honest, including the traffic cones was a bad decision.

Wonderful 👏

We have the bill AND the bipartisan support to restore union rights for 1 million federal workers!

It’s time to get it done.

A painting as a poem 🤔

Except for the occasional flop 😉

Fresh baked tray of cookies

🍽️🥣🍪 Working on my #art takes days, weeks, sometime months. The appeal of #baking as a side interest is it is hands-on creativity that has to be completed in a short period of time.

Love interesting flavors. A soft sugar #cookie with a Korean soybean paste, brown sugar and butter swirl. Sweet/Salty.

New to social media? 😉
That would cut-off it’s oxygen.
