I have just received some good news. I have been chosen as a finalist in the competition to Paint The Great Degas. All of the great painters of our time were invited to participate and were eliminated one by one. As you can see from the first two photos, the competition was fierce but in the end only the best of the best remained.. It is truly an honor to enter this great contest of my peers. I will practice sketching a Degas every day until the great day in order to win the grand prize which is . . .
First there's me . . . then there’s Sam the painting porpoise. Next that sly fox Malevich the painting pig . . . I don’t really know who that next guy is - I thing he is a ringer. Then there’s the most feared competitor of them all. He’s known as ‘the baby’. As I said before, the competition is fierce. It will be my pleasure to keep you informed of all events until the day comes for me to Paint The Great Degas.

Life In The Color Of Coffee . . .

Life in the color of coffee
is strong and sweet -
made with refreshing water . . .
tempered by fire . . .
enhanced by friends.
Degas was also a sculptor. This is my very, very first sculpture. It fell apart during the night. Will now look at a book for some instruction.
