Nov. 3rd, 2008 06:48 amAn artist friend of mine once observed that the fall seemed to be the time when I was the most productive artistically. This year, for various reasons, that doesn't seem the case.
So, although I'd rather post fresh stuff, I'm gonna post one that I dedicated to him. Many years ago, he moved to Florida to get out of the northern winters. His dad was a former NASA engineer who'd settled there after retirement.
I like to imagine that Rich is living somewhere in the middle Keys, surrounded by a lifetime of wonderful art...
