My 4th of July window display takes place 6/28/13

It is a very patriotic display and I'll keep some of the 4th's display in the window. The large red, white and blue ribbon will be retired and the flags as well. Between Memorial Day and flag day and the 4th my windows got a lot of attention. Right now what remains are red, silver and blue shining stars exploding up,out and cascading gracefully down. Nice when the sun shines on them, they catch the light and always seem to be in constant motion.

The rest of the summer window is being planned. This will be an easy one because it's sale time and most of my people are focusing on "The Shore" or "The Mountains" anyway.

July 12th I will probably remove the cascading stars from the windows and the red, white and blue flowers.

I'll be here all summer but will take long weekends sporadically. I have to notify my "google places" about this and do some editing. Maybe tomorrow. In the meantime support your local art street fairs and bring me the framing.

July 18th,19th &20th,2013 Cliffside Park will host a sidewalk sale. I'll be participating so please try to stroll the avenue and stop in to visit and browse and perhaps add a piece to your collection. Hope to see you.

2013: When I mention "The Mountains" I assume everyone knows by now I'm referring to The Catskills, in Sullivan County, N.Y. My hometown is Monticello, N.Y.
and be it ever so humble, there's no place like home. I recently saw Orsen Bean in a play at the Shadowland theater in Ellenville,N.Y. in the gunk's (short for Shawangunk Mountains) in Ulster Co. next to Sullivan Co.

Before the play, scheduled to start at 8pm, we arrived before 7pm to have dinner at the Mexican restaurant across the street from the theater. To make a long story short
the food didn't reach us until 7:45 so we had it bagged (well) and packed it into the pre-iced cooler my daughter thoughtfully transports all summer in her car because she breaks for farm stands. I enjoyed the play, and the food the next day.

Still 2013: I tend to get carried away from my purpose of posting a blog. I created this blog solely for trying to sell some of my gallery's collection through the miracle of the internet. (I still consider my computer a "miracle"). Besides answering emails and taking calls from whomever I have reached, in between I am greeting browsers, new and old, designing framing needs, etc., I like to log some of my moments that have nothing to do with art. It's like taking a "break".

O.K. So let's start selling! Keep on scrolling.
