Shirley says my cartoons always make fun of her. This one poked fun at me. Shirley thinks I am accident prone.

One day while camping in Texas an RV pulled into the site with a couple that were nudists. When they heard I was an artist she couldn't wait to show me her sketches. As usual I had to create a cartoon for my daily journal. More about this in my next Blog.

PS. She was clothed.

Here is another cartoon from my travel trailer days

We don't travel south to spend the winters anymore but when we did I kept a cartoon journal of daily events. This is one I did in Goliad State Park, Texas.

My memory is short. I guess that is another way of saying it's bad. I don't remember if I put this painting up before. It is of an Indian ranch in Taos New Mexico. A former student of Ansel Adams looked at it and said paint the building red. Apparently he insisted on doing color photography even though his mentor preffered black and white and was told "if you insist on color put red in your photos". I thought that was a good critique of my painting but I left it the way I saw the scene.

Thanks for looking!

Thursday, June 17 will be an eventful day at East Ludington Gallery, Escanaba, MI. One of the Bus Tour groups that visit the gallery is scheduled for that day. They are always fun and I enjoy talking with folks from all over the country. Sometimes there are people from other countries. This group is World Wide Country Tours.

Thursday, 4:30 to 6:00 is our monthly "Third Thursday" event. If you are in the area you should come and enjoy a fun time with lots of interesting conversation.
