Amanda Gordon quote now with AltText.
“I think if I could go back in time and give myself a message, it would be to reiterate that my value as an artist doesn't come from how much I create. I think that mindset is yoked to capitalism. Being an artist is about how and why you touch people's lives…”

Today in the Pasadena, CA area, we have the earliest sunsets of the year.
Weather app say today has 10 hours of daylight.
This 2023 newbie #Gardening hobby inspires me to be a closer observer of my surroundings. I notice the shade on wildflower bed (hope it’s sunny enough by Feb-Mar for blooms!)

Did a #search thru photos & found March moss-ness. Moss—from rainstorms or shade? Already on a well-trod patio, moss is forming. #Gardening involves #observingNature & keeping one’s own seasonal almanac.

Preserving neon sign from Long Beach Pike!
“The historical significance of the neon signs cannot be understated, Lynxwiler said — both on a cultural and personal level. It is one of the last surviving signs from The Pike, he said, an amusement zone that he has fond memories of visiting as a child.”

Lisa Hajjar on Kissinger
“My burgeoning interest in int’l relations and the history of Palestine, and my new-found identity as an Arab American, fueled my interest in the Arab-Israeli conflict which was constantly in the news. And there, too, being all Machiavellian was my role model, Kissinger.”

Heartsick over resumed bombing in Gaza.
I created a new twitter list of Palestinian voices recently. After reading a portion of the tweets since bombing resumed last night PST I went to White House contact form to register my dismay & to urge Pres Biden to do all in his power to make Israel stop.

When I was looking through old art papers I came across this analog photocopier art self-portrait I made in, oh, 1988 or 1989 or so (big curly hair perm era)
Can’t decide if the #glee is in the rediscovery or the mood I was in when I originally made this wacky self portrait.03:19 PM - Nov 29, 2023![Photocopier self-portrait: multiple profiles of a woman’s face, side view. She wears earring, her eyes are closed, and there are maybe three original images and they’re repeated in small repeated rectangles of profile face, mouth open in smiles and laughter, and hands laid down on the photocopier glass. The photocopy images are black and white with hands that are next to each other in a kind of unintentional exuberance of photocopied jazz hands.]()
