In a rush to get out of town and to the big city for the holiday, but wanted to post at least one entry before I hit the road.
It was a great surprise this morning to read that the University of Iowa Libraries is launching their online archive of art with some connection to the University, and to find that one of my pieces is included. I made this piece years ago, http://digital.lib.uiowa.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/dp&CISOPTR=1145&CISOBOX=1&REC=1 , when I was still an annual giving officer for the Foundation. Not a literal portrait of our annual giving staff (the incredibly energetic Kris, the tremendously fun Anne, and me), but an emotional portrait of tough smart girls, diplomatic and presentable on the outside but always ready to rumble in our bureaucratic playground. Not unlike the troublemaking girls of Petticoat Junction, only smarter.
