Trying to sell some gear online... Nothing quite like 3 people think who think I'm offering a great deal, then one sends me an accusation of gouging.

I can maintain my absurd post count, work a full time-and-a-half job, climb hard, and still find time to do other... non-climbing things too. ...talkin' 'bout my generation? I sit on the edge of Gen X and Y. I bring many things to society. Mostly, though, I don't bring much to this site other than a penchant to wave mah fists around meaninglessly.

I'm not sure what the current exhibit holds, but she wasn't just a floral painter. the southwest had a pretty strong influence on her. I'm not a fan of southwest-style art; it's not not in my visual palette, so to speak, but she has a lot of strange, almost abstract-like paintings of obviously southwest-style objects. (I was more drawn by her east-coast influences, and surprised, too) Can't remember how many sculptures she did, but a lot of her abstract stuff in general is highly sexually inspired. Maybe the wife will like it.

I just don't get the modern materials used in art. the whole Dada movement to me was fucking stupid. OK, I get the point, they hated war so much that they were mocking society by creating art that was absolutely nothing...but now kids take clippings from magazines and put together a collage and call that art. It's just not my taste, I guess. I much prefer paint and I really want to get into sculpture someday. Speaking of turkey tracing, at the moment, I'm experimenting with oil pastels on glass. btw - the rattles and drums thing wasn't meant as a slap in the face. quite literally Santa Fe is a very large artist community and nearly everyone there focuses on that sort of stuff. I honestly thought Loran would be in heaven.

I honestly thought Loran would be in heaven. I appreciate many forms of art, but am not limited to one type or another. If I see something I like, I don't care if it is a painting, sculpture, or installation. I particularly like utilitarian pieces like furniture, drums & rattles, etc where form follows function; making something as basic as a chair look new and fresh is exciting, but if its not comfortable it's a fail. I have always loved the SW style, but have no experience building furniture in it, although I know enough about it now that I could. There was just no market for it in NH. Here in the SW I am soaking in all the influences to see how beadwork, found materials, jewelry techniques, etc can be incorporated into my work. Of particular interest to me is the spirituality that connects the process with the product, which gives each piece a life of its own. If you read any of my Etsy descriptions you can see this. I go out alone each night and do ceremony under the stars which helps me with this connection. Loving it! PS, the wife just brought up O'Keefe country, so I found nearby trails to get lost on while she visits the home/museum. Meaghan drove down last night from Denver so she can keep her mom company and we have her car to get around should we need it. I am now at the Toyota dealership while they investigate the constant overheating problem; not sure how long they need to keep it. Fingers crossed.

How do you like it as a TV. Your trailer is a touch longer, and probably a touch heaveir, than mine. Get pushed around much by winds, truckers, and down hills? I'm not currently thinking of a new ride, but the sub does have 130k.
