Art Continues in 2025

 And why not?  As of now I don't have a real good reason not to make art.  I have no new diseases this year (at least not so far), so just the doctor appointments I already have, and those are fewer this year than last.  There is a slight leak of the water heater in my space, but that doesn't really affect me, and the building says they will take care of that soon, and maybe they will.  

I currently have work up on the walls in the building that holds my Studio, probably through at least some of February, so that's available to the public. As of now I am aware of one other show, but have few details, an exhibition involving at least some of my Robert Johnson prints, now in Brooklyn during the spring, but I don't know anything beyond that.  I am not the organizer, so I only know what I am told.  

As for future work, I do have a new boardwalk piece in progress, and I have a good proof on the right paper.  However, I think first I will test some colors on a practice proof, and if I like the way they turn out, try coloring that good proof. If that works out, pull another good proof and see what happens with that.  If it all works out, it will be exhibited somewhere in 2025.  And though the Nashville show is now off, I do have ideas for a few more Robert Johnson prints.  If I like how the ideas develop, I may do one or two or maybe even three more prints in that series.  This project has roots going back more than 30 years, so I can't say it's done yet.  If nothing else, I will probably print some newer and more complete copies of the Johnson prints I have for the 

Beyond all this I have no plans yet, but one thing I have learned is that in art, things come and go rapidly.  Two of the shows I had in 2024 I knew nothing about when the year began, so it's possible I will have exhibitions in 2025 I don't know about yet.  I will have to wait and see, and when I know something, I will post it here.
