I’d hoped to keep posting daily while I get ready for my art show and my move to Memphis from Portland, Oregon.  I have gotten caught in the whirlwind of the last minute, though, and am trying to finish up a few larger pieces of art.  My art show is on Saturday, and I’m moving on April 30th.  My posting will be a little more erratic for the next few months as I resettle.  I’ll be posting more of my finished art and also return to book reviews.
