Preparations for an exhibit is always an unbelievable amount of work. Even though much art is already finished there are always lots of planning to work through. The old school of Chilocco to be the host location this year is wonderful for me simply because it is so close. Everything there is handy for Rhonda and the whole family has always for years and years found every event a time for great memories to be kept.
An unbelievable requirement for an artist to practice self-discipline is heaped upon our poor souls in order to give a good showing of our work. There are brief interludes when the muse rests on our shoulder and we are compeled to work. Most of the time, though, is tied up with just the
trivial little duties of cleaning brushes, mixing paint, blocking in canvases, etc. etc.
On the patio of the student union building where I will set up June 7,8, 9 on the Chilocco campus will once again let me visit with old friends who were once like family and will be so wonderful. I made many Cherokee friends, not knowing at the time of high school I actually had a Cherokee grandmother.
Enjoy the Cherokee morning song as I did
