Wow! Nice work!

It’s been a while but I managed to get this close to done.

The big feud between dumb and dumber is the greatest gift to MSM since Watergate but they’re too broken to make it happen.

Several gourd bottles and wine jars, freshly thrown

A gourd bottles with tenmoku glaze

A pair of wine jars with glossy brown glaze

Fun fact: I was once commissioned for a bunch of gourd bottles/wine jars for drunken kung-fu form. That was fun. #ceramics #pottery #kungfu

We go up there once or twice every year. Amazing!

Ahh, interesting. They’re not too dissimilar. This Maryhill isn’t even a town and about 5 miles from the nearest intersection.

Mission and History | Maryhill Museum of Art | Art Education Our mission is to ignite a journey of educational enrichment in the Columbia River Gorge by preserving and interpreting art and historic collections.

I am currently in the states yes. Washington. I did live in Canada for 40 years though. Maryhill is near me here on the Columbia River. www.maryhillmuseum.org/inside/missi...

It’s pretty amazing. Maryhill museum is really interesting. It’s a small eclectic collection of things and the work of local painters is outstanding.

Wind turbines, river barges, Cascade mountains, and I’m on a boat! Life in the PNW.

Love it!

Sadder still, alone on its hilltop.

My chickens have a $75 dedicated waterer in the coop but they’ll only drink from the bird bath.

Spring and sunshine has brought a lot of distraction and yard work along with it. This one’s taking more time than usual so here’s a small detail of a new WIP.

I hear that!

Reminds me of my thesis supervisor’s comment on my first draft. “What we have here is a mise en abyme”

Uh yeah, there’s a lot going on in there. Amazing.

I have several others and while I love this one it never really gets played so yeah, it should go to a new home.

1964 Fender Jazzmaster with some wear on the back but otherwise very clean.

Thinking about selling it.

You’re too good to me!

Thanks Christine! That bird had plenty of attitude but still seemed to like the attention. Quite a crowd had gathered to snap pics.
