Summer 100 (85 of 100)
"Along the Riverbank"

14 x 11

Okay it's not the Summer 100 anymore. Now it's more like the Summer Early Fall 100 but hey you get what you pay for. Life has been way to busy lately. Suddenly there was getting kids to college, going to cross country meets, and actually making money by doing my real job.

Favorite Billy Collins Poem

Horizon

You can use the brush of a Japanese monk
or a pencil stub from a race track.

As long as you draw the line a third
the way up from the bottom of the page,

the effect is the same: the world suddenly
divided into its elemental realms.

A moment ago there was only a piece of paper.
Now there is earth and sky, sky and sea.

You were sitting alone in a small room.
Now you are walking in the heat of a vast desert

or standing on the ledge of a winter beach
watching the light on the water, light in the air.

by Billy Collins
from the book "The Art of Drowning"

Quotes

I feel like my job as an artist is to craft the very finest work that I can possibly do. . . . To craft it lovingly and carefully like this is my one and only opportunity in life to get it right.
