house stack
The house smells like ginger bread ’cause Rose is in the kitchen making ginger bread people cookies. Yum. I have been feeling the pressue that comes with this season. All the expectations that can ride up your back. I am doing my best to stall chilled out and kind of failing.
I have a group show at Ann Nathan Galley next month. The opening is on the 11th Friday night. It always feels like a big deal to have a show in Chicago. I don’t feel much of a connection to that city but it is fun to go out beyond Grand Rapids once in awhile.
I have been in a woodblock and collage mode lately. It is a lot of fun to print on all sorts of different kinds of used paper and then piece them together and see what I can come up with. I like a certain amount of randomness and accidents. Making these prints feels like what my life is like…..lots of different odd pieces coming together in surprising ways.

I just found your website this week, it is very inspiring and I’ve enjoyed very much reading the writings, and viewing the artwork. Wonderful. Best wishes to you and your family.

Thank you Sandra. Like to see the Schnable quote. I like his paintings and love his films. My friend Paul interviewed him at the Teluride Film Festival this year for Spout.com
