Super Bowl bound

Makes me wonder once again: is there another professional (or any other athletic team for that matter) that actually has a "real" piece of art as a logo, such as the Seattle Seahawks have in the above Pacific Northwest art piece?

Holy rainy city Batman! The Seahawks are going to the Super Bowl!!!!

Benavent to Open at Foundry in March

Ana Elisa Benavent

    March 5 - March 30, 2014 

       Opening reception: Friday,  March 7,  6 - 8 pm 

Benavent's intense acrylics involve the viewer in complex, layered color fields.  In Shifting Gears, her trademark color expressionism explores revival, healing, reinvention and change.  “Should I go home or someplace new," muses Benavent.  And answers: "Step in, I’ll take you.  Turn up the music, roll down the windows, forget the road signs.  Faster… slower… I don’t have a reverse gear. “

That was part of an art school assignment to do plain air paintings and I did about 300 watercolors of Seattle's mostly gun metal skies of November...

Best of Bethesda

I just thumbed through the Jan/Feb issue of the annual Best of Bethesda issue from  Bethesda magazine.

What a beautiful, glossy, magazine! It featured editors' and readers' picks in 86 categories... and it really painted and offered a deep insight into the cultural tapestry of Bethesda, Maryland.

There are a couple of huge holes in that tapestry, and since they keep coming back year after year, I'm going to write an open letter to Bethesda magazine and publish it here and also mail it to them.

More later...

Uh?

Did I just see a commercial about wipeys for adults? Ahhhh... all adults...
