but the crash sucked. Gregg was hurt, Cally wasn’t. After a night in the hospital, we still don’t know why he blacked out. He left the road, went down into a ditch, was airborne for 78 ft, took out a section of fence, destroyed a gorgeous forsythia bush, veered back across a two lane road and hit a dead pine tree. The tree stopped him from plummeting forty feet into a creek. The first person on the scene was a nurse. She’s Lynn,
our Angel from Atlanta. She’s up looking for property. As Gregg walked to the ambulance, he gave her a business card. The gallery laughed. He got out of the hospital yesterday.

Changes
I have a book about Lee Krasner. She had an artist’s career before and after Pollock. But would anyone have known her if she hadn’t married him? How many women artists can you name?
Horizontal
Another spiral.
Paper
I don’t know if it’s because the canvases I’m using are sooo old, or what. This spiral is on gessoed paper, and the acrylics didn’t bead up on it. I am pleased w/ the momentum in these new spirals. 
Spring
I’ve been working on spirals all winter, and I think I’m getting somewhere! Also I’ve conquered my fear of acrylics. I have to investigate varnish, these babies are as dry as toast!
Detail
This is a detail, the upper right quad. I’m going to name this piece “Changes” because my original idea was about life and death. No matter how much we prefer the familiar, we each face changes and there is nothing we can do to stop them.
Horseback
A girl on a paint pony galloped by my studio window. Spring break in the country!
Title
I know all the COOL artists title their work before they start. Soooo
together. Which may explain my struggle. I have spirals and the Earth, but no pithy title.
Spring
Thru the winter I worked in acrylics because I have a propane heater. It does NOT like fumes! I believe I’ve learned enough to no longer be afraid of them, but I will go back to oils until next winter. I continue to explore spirals as well. I’ve moved away from helixes. There are lots of different kinds of spirals.
