Young Self...


Here are a couple photos of me... having fun on the beach when I was young. I remember those bathing suits as if it were yesterday. I wonder how long flip flops have been in style?! Have I always had the exact same haircut?!

The Picasso under the Picasso


There's a Picasso show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art right now. The top photo is the "Blind Man's Meal" from his Blue Period, 1903. Bottom photo is an x-ray of the painting...a crouching woman that was found underneath it. I love Picasso's early work. Hey, that reminds me of my own "crouching figure" shown in my blog post below.
