National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. Oklahoma City, OK.
- Hello, 2 tickets please. One adult, and one adult-aged but childish-headed person.
- We’re closing at 4 PM today, there is an art auction going on.
(Elegantly dressed people arriving. We saw them. I think I still had some Turner Falls Park water dropping from my hair, and my flip flops were as dusty as the old Wild West).
- But here… (free passes!). Make sure you check this and that.
Holy hospitality!!! People, why are you so nice here?

Like one of my very dear friends says: “from the sublime, to the (insert adjective here)”. That is how this quick stop in Fort Worth, Texas has proven to be. This morning started with an early rise, greeted by the best of Texan hospitality when the moment I opened the cottage’s doors I was greeted by a bunch of warm muffins wrapped in the best Laura Ashley style.
I spent most of the morning “working” on this monster of a project that is never satisfied. Photographs? Every single day. Paintings? As soon as I get back. Drawings? There should be more, but I need this time to absorb. Short improvised experimental film? Heck yeah! Why not? So, recording I did all morning long, while my first chief in command paraded around the garden and stepped on some camouflaged dog sh*t.
Hope it brings you lots of good luck! ;)
We would never consider leaving this town without paying a visit to The Modern. Pure architectural porn.
***New Orleans Museum of Art*** after that visit to Pensacola, it seems like everywhere I look I find something celestial, something with wings.
