An idea is sprouting.  It is coming from origami, Chemo Today, abstract painting,  acrylic painting and death.  In Chemo Today I made small square boxes and called them prayer boxes.  Floating squares in my paintings also represent prayers.  There has been a lot of death around us.  So this pink pyramid is an early try.  The white pyramid was working out how to make a pyramid.  My idea is to do a series of reliquaries, for the people we have lost.  However it may be too sad.  Gregg and I cried as we thought of the stuff that might remind us of my Dad.  An old pickup filled with tools, pecan pickers, PVC fittings, a chunk of concrete and a few empty beer cans.  No matter what, they will give me plenty of room to “speriment”.  I have found out that it is not easy to make and equilateral triangle.  I made me a 60 degree angle, and I can get close.
