Greg left for San Diego Monday and has made great progress this week. He's tackling his father's study, and is learning lots of things about Mr. M. I'm still waiting on pictures, but I'd rather him keep chugging along than stop to photograph everything.
There has been a definite theme to this week. I saw the movie The Artist and loved it.
SOPA / PIPA were the talk of the tubes this week. We need to protect artists' rights, but I personally don't want Big Brother. Perhaps we could find a happy medium to keep things fair for everyone.
I attended the Affordable Art Fair at L.A. Live and saw so many wonderful things.
Had lunch with my friend from kindergarten, Sam, and took him to Hyaena Gallery to pick up a painting I had bid on. We had a quick tour of our home which I'm so proud of, and showed him the custom work other artists have given me.
For the first time since I started this blog, I fell ill with the famous artists' disease: Writer's Block.
And last night I attended an opening, also at Hyaena, and fell madly in like with one artist's work.
What was the theme? DECLUTTER, PEOPLE! Just three things, and keep on smiling.
Also, I have some findings to share from the interwebs.
