pictures, pictures

Here is the newest piece in my art collection: Karen Stiehl Osborn's "Enlightenment," which I purchased at the Katonah gallery and which arrived yesterday.

This spot on my wall is perfect for it, although you can't really tell from the angle of the photo. I can't take a straight picture (TED O - where are you when I need you????) and I finally figured out it must be because I am left-handed. Don't ask me what that has to do with it, but it is an excuse that works for a lot of things. Here are my three best excuses. Couldn't live without 'em.

I'm too old

I'm an artist

I'm left-handed

What are your 3 best excuses? Maybe we could trade them so our friends and family wouldn't get so tired of hearing the same ones all the time.

But I digress. I have more to show you. I was so excited when Mary Elmusa sent me a picture of the piece she made, incorporating some of the fabric she printed in the Kansas Art Quilters workshop. Unfortunately, Blogger is up to its trick from yesterday, which includes NOT uploading photos. So, tomorrow, Mary will have the gallery wall to herself. In the meantime, I give up.
