Last Weekend

Last weekend Dad went to GR to participate in a painting competition. There were sculptors and 2-d artists alike. We all had 24 hours to complete a work of art started and finished at the competition. It starts at 5:00pm on a Friday and ends 24 hours later on Saturday at 5:00pm. The art is judged and there are awards. It's always a blast, though everyone is walking around like a zombie about the time it finishes on Saturday. Michael did a painting of the Palisades of GR and it turned out pretty good. The pictures here don't do it justice. It's a great place to meet other artists and see some old friends we haven't seen in a while.

Wow, that's fantastic! Seriously, we are REALLY interested in commissioning a family portrait. I'd offer to take pictures for you guys (my newest hobby) but I'm afraid you'd do much better on your own (plus you surely have zillions of really talented artistic friends...are we too un-talented to be in your friend group?)
