Happy Belated May Day!

Fritz Scholder





Is Fritz Scholder the American Indian equivalent to Andy Warhol? I will leave this to you.



The American Indian Smithsonian's "Changing Exhibit" currently hosts the art of Fritz Scholder. To Purchase prints for me please visit this site. Or to see the exhibit brochure, go here. I hope you enjoy his work as much as I did (two visits so far!).

101st!

This is my one hundred and first post. We win!

The pics will share what I have been up to...
Posted are two pics from Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's estate. Jefferson designed the University of Virginia campus, also pictured. Lining the main quad where students play frisbee and hang out on the lawn are single bedroom dorms. These dorms go to the student leaders by application. The rooms have no heat, explaining the wood outside the doors. Also, the bathroom is down the quad, so students walk around outside in their bathrobes on the way to the shower. Fascinating ideas.










Lastly, I share more pics of DC in spring bloom. What better way to share this with my neighborhood than the attend a birthday party for Shakespeare at the Shakespeare (Folger) Library?
