MOCA
The girls and I had some time today so we headed over to MOCA in Los Angeles. I hadn’t been there in way too long, and had forgotten what an awesome place this is. We crawled into one exhibit and hung out on the floor and talked, with q-tips and blue super balls hovering around us in various sculpted shapes. The carved lipstick exhibit was another awesome find in the Poetics of the Handmade, as was the exhibit crafted out of Mexican paper money. The skateboards and surfboard were very cool, and the reliefs made out of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil were awesome.

Just dessert
“What a difference a day makes…” It’s a cliche, but true. I think about my own children and how astonishing it was to see them grow as babies. Even now, they’re 13 and 8, and not a day passes when they do something that just blows my mind. That generally is a wonderful thing. Sometimes it just makes me laugh and shake my head. My younger daughter has this habit lately of wiping her hands on her shirt. So there we were yesterday at a restaurant, she finishes her cupcake, and before I could say anything, wipes her frosting-covered fingers across the front of her shirt… For the rest of the afternoon until we could get home, she had finger tracks…

On the road again…
Today I’m in Denver, Colorado, an absolutely beautiful part of the country. I love how big the sky is here, and the clouds. I’m a huge fan of clouds, as many of you probably already know or guessed. You have seen a cloud theme in a lot of my work, especially the wide-angle variety…

Happy Father’s Day!
My dad was one of the biggest influencers in my life. I think we dads sometimes forget the tremendous impact we have on our children’s lives… Each moment we interact with our kids is a chance to pick them up or knock them down. If you wonder how big an impact you have on your child’s life, consider the finding that most young children associate their view of their father with their view of God… No pressure! lol
