The Chelsea House

We had a wonderful time this past Thursday evening attending the COLOR Art Show at the Chelsea
Mansion in East Norwich, N.Y.  (I had one large painting and a smaller collage in the show) Very well attended, with a jazz trio playing in one room and later an 18 piece jazz band .  Here are some photographs from the mansions grounds which I took when we first arrived.  If you get a chance, check out this beautiful estate and its grounds!

At The Met

Catherine and I had a very pleasant and educational afternoon at The Metropolitan Museum of Art this past Sunday.  A wonderful, small group of UMASS Amherst faculty and Alumni shared a lunch in the museum and later were treated to a tour of rugs, tapestries, paintings, calligraphy from Iran, Iraq and other countries.  A tour led by Professor Walter Denny, who was very adept at also sprinkling in a nice dose of humor within his scholarly presentation.
       Attached are several images of the many fantastic artifacts that we all enjoyed. The last image is a shadow created by one of the objects displayed....even that was interesting!
