Polly Lynn Kimmorley. Outback Landscapes.
I went back and got the artist's names. From Little Somethings blog.
I finally just sat down and got my Valentine's written and in the mailbox. They might be late- the Post Office and all. But still nice to get mail. Even late.
I didn't make my oatmeal twice.....I open the microwave and find one already in there......and my coffee was pretty decent for instant. I got the proportions right.
There is a Disturbance in the Continuum. Family stuff in California. Good Stuff. But I am not used to having Any Stuff Happening so I am trying to stay calm and stay "in my lane" so to speak.
Helped G find a "missing" puzzle piece. When he gets exhausted looking for a piece he makes me walk over and "find it"....usually it's the first piece I look at.....which makes him CRAZY....
My son says it's the Artist Thing and that I see pattern and color more than I see puzzle pieces.
The Adult Education Brochure arrived yesterday. Painting Classes. Pottery classes- wheel thrown pots etc. which I am really really wanting to do.....but it's night driving. There are tons of watercolor classes. But I don't need a class. Last time they sent one of these catalogs- there was an intaglio printing class. Now,,,that is something I need to do again- cause now I am not 20 years old and stupid and lazy....and clueless as to subject matter. I have lots of CLUES to Subject Matter @ 76. Intaglio was my "jam" as they said in some time period. I was ill prepared for college art classes.
I was Very Good at Art. I was not Very Good at showing up. Doing the Work. Situational Depression. I don't think that is spelled correctly but the computer let it slide. College let me slide........ 1964 to 68.

I remember going into your college art building for a required photography class. It seemed like such an exotic place. I loved going in to check out a camera for homework, I felt like I belonged in that space for that one moment. When it came time for the darkroom stuff, I was my usual clutsy self.
I was a print making major in undergrad and graduate school, and intaglio was my favorite. That and woodcuts. One of my professors made incredible woodcuts that were 3'x 6' on plywood.
Print Making Major- Gosh....that would have made me happy.
