Food for Thought
We complain about paying taxes. Joanna put a link to this article to think about. Exxon has a $30 billion tax bill for 2007. Whew.

On the Road
We will be on the road for a few days, so not sure how much I will be blogging. Check out some of my links or my "On the Road" section of my web page. :) It was my blog, of sorts, before this blog. Scroll down for a paint out in Nova Scotia, Canada, a few years ago.
In the meantime, you can also check out the Raymar art contest for oil and acrylic painters. Nice prizes. I do paint in oil once in a while. The fumes give me a headache, though.

Susan's Dream Come True
Congratulations to Susan, our friend, on the opening of her studio/gallery in La Villita, San Antonio, Texas. I can only imagine how exciting this is. Pop over and add a comment on her blog. She is a great pastelist and does wonderful portraits in oil and pastel. She is generous and supporting to fellow artists as well. She sent me a great list of hints for my upcoming class. If you are in San Antonio stop by the studio and visit or take a class.
