Keeping things in perspective....

is so much easier said than done! But I try, which is all anyone can do. Some big problems are not big problems. Some things that are being ignored need attention. Sometimes having fun is the very best thing you can do for world peace. It's not always obvious.

This year I'll sacrifice barbeque and three legged races to spend my 4th in Denver at the Cherry Creek Arts Festival. For those who have experienced this show, you know "sacrifice" is hardly the word. This is the kind of show that artists dream of. Inspiring artists, sophisticated buyers, supportive producers, and - often - weather that you can talk about for years afterwards! This show has great kid's activities, and is dedicated to supporting art in the schools. I'm proud to have work in the Mobile Art Collection, which is a fabulously innovative and inspiring program. Check out the show's website to whet your appetite for art!
