So... what the hell comes down.


So... Today was the last day of the show. I spent it packing up art work and sending the work that sold to it’s new homes.

This has been a really great event for me. The Janette Kennedy gallery is organized so that the artist is in charge of all most every aspect of putting a show together. And I must admit that it was a lot more work than I thought. Just organizing and sending out the press releases was quite a task. In the future I will be much more thankful for all the hard work that gallery owners put into an art exhibit.

Yucatan Adventure


We spent the holidays eating and climbing our way across the Yucatan.  This was the first time I have ever been Mexico and I was a bite nervous about going. But as it turned out every day was a wonderful adventure. The history, the nature, the food, the towns and the people were all just wonderful. In the town of Izamal we ate food that I would gladly travel all the way back just to eat more of.
 
The first archaeological sites we went to was Uxmal (pictured above). It had all the classic elements of a Mayan city plus large lizards climbing all over the grounds. Some of the other sites we went to were deep in the jungle and we were the only ones there!
