A lovely day-spend with the lovely KPB.
I joked to KPB about how I finally sent off my work because I had to get ready to hang out with her today and how she was helping me check things off my summer fun list too... Today: A walk though the Rose Garden, Baklava at Sultan's, and a meander through the Broad Art Museum's new exhibits.
Bestie KB set me and KPB up when she left to go live in Minneapolis. So KPB reminds me a little of being with KB (they even have similar names and initials)! But KPB and I have lots in common and today was just an easygoing ramble of chatter and jokes and shared positions on things that matter. And new ideas--now I want to get a glass-cutting tool and work with old bottles.
Pic: "Angel Soldier" by Yongbaek Lee (2005). In this hanging video installation, there are soldiers wearing flower camouflage moving ominously through a vista of artificial flowers. It's their movement that gives them away, so they're difficult to detect in a photograph. (But if the photo were a clockface and you look in the region of 10, you can kind of see the muzzle of a gun.) Broad Art Museum today with KPB who came down from Alma for the day.

It sounds like a really lovely day!
When my kids were in maybe grades five and six, we had a glass artist come in to the school. I still have their artwork from that time, it's pretty cool!
Hanging out with a friend is great motivation to finish something. That glass art sounds interesting.
Gillian--Thanks!
Nicole--I'd love to see their art...
Steph--so far, it's just an idea...
