The Great Wheels are finally rolling

"Stream Light" 7"x12" acrylic
For nearly two years I have been working with some folks at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) on developing an exhibition of art, science and adventure highlighting the Boreal Forest; largest terrestrial ecosystem in the world and the greatest wilderness on Earth. It took almost 18 months to arrange one key meeting and another 6 months for the fruits of that meeting to get out of the bud stage. This last week they came into flower so to speak. I now have more work to do than ever, but at least there is motion. Happened to occur in full accordance with the Peter Principle though. After months of inactivity it is now all in a rush, at the same time I have to write a proposal for a major sponsor/partner in four days....it's like being back in college with papers galore to write. I have managed to finish some artwork. The attendant painting was recently done and sold last weekend.
