| Top 100 Archive and Studio (in progress) |
Home, weathering out the coronavirus outbreak. Teaching remote, twiddling around. I should have had the Archive building finished but a combination of know-how, or lack thereof and laziness keep me from achieving this coveted milestone. I'm getting closer however slow the progress. After finishing all 100 paintings for the Top 100 2019 I'm slowly starting to think about this year's. For no other reason than 'I just felt like it' I started faithfully copying an image from the booklet tucked in the LP Introduction to the Music of Viet Nam that has been a mainstay on my player in recent weeks. Earlier, in the context of my twice-annual stencilprint project with Art Appreciation students, I had already created a print depicting Jane Wiedlin, known for her part of the Go Go's. After watching a fantastic concert of Go Go's classics at the Bob Rauschenberg Gallery earlier this year I chose Jane Wiedlin as subject to trading prints with students. Jane is being sent one too and so is the artist Beatriz Monteavaro who sat in on drums. I met them both and got a high five from Jane Wiedlin. So now there's two disparate works that could end up being the start of the Top 100 2020. I have not decided on a theme, style, format, or topic (if any) for the upcoming series.
