8:00 Morning Sun Capping the Sacred Heart East Tower

Used to not feel couple of years ago hardly worth it to complete the sentence and then it got so try as I might I couldn't and it developed into something that way, see, so now in place of that I just complete the thought whatever I've learned, you know, like I see it complete whatever thought comes, see, instead of trying to make myself hurry back to where I should be here, and also . . .

Jack Kerouac, Visions of Cody

My Saturday morning commenced in a manner similar to the word salad from the mouth of Kerouac's friend Neal Cassady (Cody in the book) posted above. I awoke a liltle before 7:00, and as I lay there, thoughts and images stumbled through my waking mind, a veritable cacophony of sights and sounds. As I lay there wondering, the bells of Sacred Heart across the street from the Redlands, tolled nine times for the 7:00 hour. That isn't unusual. It tolled eight times for 7:00 a few mornings ago.

Two days ago, I blogged my surprise as I looked out the gallery window and saw workmen on a rising scaffold changing out the signs above the gallery window. The Queen Street Grille across the lobby from me will celebrate a grand re-opening with a new chef next weekend. When the new sign went up, my Gallery sign ended up inside the gallery, and we finally found a place to display it.

My goal today is to have six new watercolors framed and presented in the gallery. The fifth is well underway and I still need to make up my mind what to do for the sixth.

I finished the first vaquero last night and intend to complete the second one today.

Next Friday, August 20 at 7:00 pm, we will host our Gallery Talk with Wayne White and Stacy Campbell. More details will be released next week. We hope you'll join us for a night of quality art discussion and plenty of laughs as well. Those two never disappoint.

Thanks for reading.

I make art in order to discover.

I journal when I feel alone.

I blog to remind myself I am not alone.
