Scanner art
Okay, I found a link to one. I'm not sure what the site is but it does show stuff that has been beautifully scanned and made into art by doing that. I hope you can figure out that last sentence. Here's the link:

Kids
I have poked around all over the place and I've yet to find any "kids" on the site. Has anyone run into them or had problems?

Hi
Hi guys, my computer has quit and I am computing to you from one in the library. I'll be back soon, as soon as it's fixed.

Scanner art
Have you seen the kind of Scanner Art where they lay the piece being scanned directly on the scanner? Take a look at this web site.

I have a tree!
I just had to send you this. I haven't had a Christmas tree for years (since Bill died). And they were fake ones. This one is real, in a pot and I have to water it. It's only 18" high. I put all the grandchildren's ornaments on it that I bought when each of them were born and they have their birth dates on them. I actually found I had a small string of lights for it, too. No one is coming to see it so I'm e-mailing it to everyone.
I'm still here
I've been lurking, but I promise I will do something really good and get back in. I've just been busy with this SEASON. Today, I have a performance to do with my quartet and the chorus has been singing all over the place.
Can I post what I have been doing? It's not exactly abstract. It's a present for my daughter-in-law, my little granddaughter with her Mona Lisa smile. See? A little art history.

Yet another Morris Louis
Here's another one, it's called VAV.
And here's the info about it.
In 1953 Louis visited Helen Frankenthaler's studio and was impressed by her experiments with staining the canvas rather than painting on it. He developed this technique in works such as VAV. One of his so-called 'veil' paintings, it was made by pouring very liquid paint down its surface. In applying paint in this way Louis was reacting against Abstract Expressionist painters such as de Kooning and Kline. They had emphasized gestural brushwork as a means of personal expression. By pouring paint, Louis sought to exclude expression because the artist no longer directly controlled the marks which resulted. Also, the stained canvas no longer 'bore' a representative image. Instead it became an object in itself.
