Lots of current posts on my Blogger site. Of course its mostly thoughts and observations dealing with the hurricane and subsequent failure and fallout of the government. All of which has me in a cantankerous mood.
Added to that a surprise end of season (no doubt exhaustion fueled) crummy cold. So I've been feeling like I'm swimming thru molasses for the past couple of days.
Somewhere in there I thought I'd try to do something not complain-y, whin-y or so negative, so I finished a little wildlife piece and posted it on my website. It requires quicktime to view, and is about 4 megs so if you have dialup click and make coffee. I, like a lot of artists, am struggling with how to make work in the face of all that is happening. I know it's probably more important now than ever, and that it will be up to artists (and this means all artists of all media) to provide some balance to the horror of the past week and the unease of the future. Art for healing.
Have a great day, and be nice to everyone you meet. You never know what they might be going thru. Also, come together, build community, and be strong. It is our only defense against those that will try to divide and alienate us as a way to gain power or profit.
