And some time spent staying informed about the insanity happening in our country right now. VOTE 💙! Ditch anyone even remotely associated with these nuts. Boycott. Protest. Don’t spend even a single cent on anyone or any company supporting the fall of democracy. The only pain felt by these people is in their wallets. Don’t just send a small message…send it loud and clear and STOP anything that supports or even remotely supports them cray crays!!

WHAT A THRILL. to have visit my show and spend time together over the weekend.
An artist I studied as a young art school student, who had significant influence on my practice, who I later met when she was the Koopman Chair in Photography for a semester, and then I fortunately got to assist in a photo shoot at the old Hartford drive-in, which I got be in (I’m sitting in the pick up truck) who I then eventually get to chat with about my work and our past associations with HAS.
Can you see the smile, ear to ear. Thanks so much Sandy! And of course to and CLAMP!

Sandy taught at HAS from 1972-75 before I arrived, and has always held a special place for me.

COMMUNITY. It’s in community that we find love, joy, fun, happiness, support, friendship, laughter, and life itself. In this case, Julian and I are so fortunate to have brought together our amazing friend groups, doubling up on the beautiful circle of people with whom we can share this human journey. At the end of the day, it’s all about the positive impact you have on each other that matters most. You can see it in every one of these photos! Love you Julian and each and every one of this fabulous posse.

Happy Birthday mom! It’s hard to believe it’s been almost two years since you left us. You would be 95 now. There isn’t a day that I don’t think about you. I find you in so much that I do…so much reveals itself as time passes that I had not yet noticed or understood. Thank you for all your love, care and support for all the years before and for all the years forward. A few photos of things about the house that remind of you all the time! XO
