Some New York Grids...

and a photo of the Victorian Glass House at Golden Gate Park, filtered through PhotoForge, one of my iPhone apps. The first two are grids of the Alexander McQueen ad in the American Airlines magazine. As always, click on photo to enlarge.

Ellis's New Rickenbacker Bass

Graduation present for Ellis - 2 schools, 2 great cities, 5 1/2 years later, with a year off for travel and work in Israel, Italy and Chapel Hill and our son is now a college graduate. Bravo Ellis!

(No pictures on our walls, still; work being done upstairs, even as I write.)

Here, in California...

It has been weeks since I posted. We are here in California, though it's 96º outside, 10º warmer than at home in Chapel Hill. Not what we came to California for. But we are staying in the hotel room for the day till we go to San Francisco for dinner with Ward and Vivienne. A little cooler there, always. Here are some of my iPhone pics of CA.

First, a shot of my new gallery in San Francisco; Mina Dresden Gallery (not my pic - from Mina's website!). We saw Rob Lowe filming on the street outside the gallery and I had the presence of mind to say how fantastic he was in Parks and Rec; he put his hand on my shoulder, smiled broadly, making his already incredibly chiseled face even more chiseled, and said "Thanks so much". !!
