My interest in writing this blog lies in my endless worshiping of life. I'd like to think my approach is much like my old hound dog's behavior when he used to gleefully drive his shoulder into a warm cow pie. He performed this gesture with gusto, with fascination and with a profound delight at having found the purpose in life. Jump in to this scree, rant or whatever the hell it is and offer up a few words. Click the pictures and they will blow up---figuratively speaking.

Back, Rested, with New Sculpture
So we were gone, but now were are back. Just a little hiatus from doing what we usually do. I will admit that some of the "away" stuff involved actual work, like on sculpture. For that I am pleased, sorta. I have known for a long time that work is the curse of the leisure class but in order to have some leisure I have to still work at this advanced age.
It is not all drudgery, mind you. Hanging out in the primitive, but nicely warmed studio/workshop isn't toil and pain like clearing land or finishing concrete. I do feel rewarded. But now the work is off to The Edgewood Orchard Gallery in Door County I feel relieved, maybe despondent, satisfied and ready to garden, chase turkeys, play the fiddle like I know what I am doing, and then do some more sculpture.
Part of the "away" stuff also involved going to south coast of France for a few weeks. We stayed with and artist and her mom. Ann painted--this will be another post filled with comment.
So here is some of the new sculpture. Almost sounds like I am using this blog to promote my work---well?
