4th Annual Skies Exhibition
It’s my pleasure to announce that one of my paintings was accepted into the 4th Annual Skies Exhibition with Fusion Arts. I guess I have been working with Fusion for quite a while as I was accepted in the 3rd Annual also. And further joy, as they’re local to me, I was able to meet them a couple years ago – back when we met people IRL!
Anyway, enjoy the virtual exhibition HERE.

Look up to the sky –
the sun lights the clouds on fire
at the edge of day.

The following poem is written for and painted into the painting:
Love the clouds above
Nothing else will bring the rain
That brings earth to life.

Grey Cube Gallery
I may not be leaving the house, but I am in a show! This painting won an honorable mention in the Grey Cube Gallery “Skies” show this month.

Of course I’m going to create a painting involving meteorites when there’s a meteorite shower in the offing, and of course as a poet I’m going to romanticize it.
What do you wish for?
I wish only for clear skies
and the stars above.
Cloud Appreciation Society
Always my pleasure to pass along the Cloud Appreciation Society’s occasional Newsletter.
If you are – or you decide to become – a member of the society, you can also join local groups of cloudspotters. I started the Imperial County California group, and then was encouraged to merge with the Borrego Springs group. It’s a small world of little towns and big spaces under this open sky and the coordinator of the Borrego Springs group was none other than a client of mine!
Now that we have the two groups merged, it’s actually catching us at the least-busy time of year for cloudspotting here. Plain blue is installed almost without exception through about the end of July. We might get some thunderheads to look at in August! But if you’re in our catchment area, please join us and we can start sharing some of the clouds when they return from their sojourn.

The earth spins around
Twirling the clouds and making
The sun seems to rise.

Here’s the second painting that was created for the Joshua Tree competition.
