The other day I found this great piece of art that Frank Mell gifted me back in the eighties when Ed and I shared studio space.
It is made up of found objects, like ripped blue jeans (for the clouds and sky), rusty metal (for the red earth) and twisted wire for the hanging ropes. Frank called them his "Westerns" which is pretty damn clever when you think about it. All three of the Mell brothers, Frank, Ed and Lee were so damn talented. I hung Frank's "Western" next to a note Edmundo gave me when he came to the opening of my new studio back in 1992. It is my Mell wall and I see it every day and smile.
Took Uno to the vet this morning for his annual checkup. He wasn't too happy to be there, so he tucked his head behind my leg for protection.
In his defense, they cut off his nuts one time and maybe that has something to do with his shyness.
Went to the post office and got this packet full of the new Dude Ranchers book. That made my day.
