Here are the gallery details https://caplanartdesigns.com/ The gallery is relocating my Owl and Pussycat exhibit, starting Nov 23, to the south waterfront Daily Cafe at the tram.

The Owl and Pussycat opening party
As they say in show business “the show must go on”… the week of my opening party for my series of paintings inspired by Edward Lear’s poem “The Owl and the Pussycat” I had a severe allergic reaction to some eye medication. Went to the doctor the day before my big event and got new…

Specifically their tactics of outright lies, lies by ommission, goal-post moving, gaslighting, DARVO, hypocrisy, book bans, censorship, the firing of people, random closures of government departments, the cessation of record keeping, the removal of photos/documents from historical…

Eggheads forum
As I’ve worked on my Eggheads sculpture – hand painting heads on 12 solid wood eggs and bodies on 12 solid wood egg cups – I thought about how smart people are as essential to society as eggs are to a working kitchen. In the background of my thinking was a question of how to…

Eggheads going on and on
I’ve taken a rather inadvertent blogging break. My still-in-physical-therapy ankle is an ongoing life factor. Other things have been happening too with the results being that I’ve not had much time for blogging. But all the while I’ve been not-blogging I’ve been working a little along towards my upcoming one person exhibit at Caplan Art…
