At the Asheville Art Museum...


Sorry, another crummy photo. Michael Sherrill's "Black Medicine, 2014" is below. An amazing artist's branch of life-like Elderberries.




While thinking of linear art...

Interesting screen-work in the cafe' on the top floor of the Asheville Art Museum. Delicious side salad for $3...which was a stand-alone for Helen's vegan lunch. My cheese sandwich added to mine (just $7 more!) There were more pricy items too!



Sculptures on the roof, and a view of a hotel as well as distant mountains in the Blue Ridge. Noon that week meant sitting only in shade, and so we stayed in the air conditioned part of the cafe. The one shady table on the patio side had already been taken.

Constant apologizing can be a sign that you are not feeling that you have much self-worth.

    1. Though I'd prefer beef usually medium rare, I'll take a comment of well done on a rather long blog gratefully.

    1. Thank you...glad you liked it. The hanging wire would of course be removed if I was a pro photographer. But for me it just reminds me that the Lakeview Center for Active Aging still has to be repaired 9 months after the hurricane.

    1. I was really impressed with that also. And now I have to figure out a artist is also the Michael Sherrill, who made Pottery tools near Asheville.
