Japan, 1980 - An Artist's Tour
TBT in 1980 I spent time in Japan working on my thesis about Japanese art and Japan's National Treasures, also known as master artists. I just rediscovered this sketchbook from then; traveling around Tokyo, Izo, Kyoto, etc. with my handy marker pen. This is the Kanjiro Kawaii House where we slept on tatami mats and had a zen moment. Japanese art & design has greatly influenced my own work; who'd a thought this would reappear with all the memories it brings?
Art Collectors: Thank You Very Much!

Headed to Mesa, AZ Museum Exhibition "Tomales Point, Point Reyes, CA"
"Tomales Point Trail, Point Reyes National Seashore Park" is framed and ready to ship to participate in the "Roadside USA" exhibition at the i.d.e.a. Museum in Mesa, AZ. Proud to participate, the curator said he chose my work because he wanted work that looked like it had actually been done on the road. It was.
"Point Reyes National Seashore No. 2", C. Twomey Original Work In Progress
18 X 24” on gessoboard; acrylic and mixed media.
The way the mist would flow in from the Pacific, up the dunes and over the hills set such a mood. This cove had fighting sea lions and hundreds of species of birds that I couldn't begin to identify. Whenever I have a bad day (today, unfortunately) this is where my mind goes.

SpaceX Launch No.1, Unmanned or Unwomaned, March, 2019, 2:49 a.m.
12X12”, acrylic on archival board, available.
I was supposed to go to the launch but it got complicated with the timing and the dogs, so my husband went. It was wonderful to experience the launch vicariously and watch the launches video stream.
Good grief, the power, the sound, the blinding light. That hundreds of people would be there at 2 - something in the morning was just incredible. The flight will be manned in July; maybe I’ll try again.
From SpaceX:
”At 2:49 a.m. EST on March 2, SpaceX launched Crew Dragon’s first demonstration mission from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This test flight without crew on board the spacecraft is intended to demonstrate SpaceX’s capabilities to safely and reliably fly astronauts to and from the International Space Station as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program.”
