If I worked on this mayor’s staff, I so would nominate myself to be the fake maid of honor.  I could give one stellar bogus toast.

First, let me tell you how much I love my new iPhone, which allowed to me sneak tons of photos at the Cincinnati Art Museum (it’s easy to trick the docents into thinking you’re sending a text message).  So, I got a great close up of this stunning painting by Henry Mosler.

I have been painting since high school and drawing since I was knee-high to a grasshopper (I love saying that).  Yet, I see paintings like this and think, “How is that done?”  Yeah, I sort of stand there with my mouth hanging open while people pass me and the painting by.

Then, I want to race home and paint before my head explodes.  That’s a less poetic way of describing how inspiring it is.
