thursday ...
no news to post right now,
instead, I'm off to the passport office.
Montreal artist and a very big, black poodle. He loves fibres; the arts; so do i. His favourite fibre for knitting is mohair.
Today is the Vernissage (opening of the Show)
for "Finding Home".
You can find the Link here to show you the
invitation for the show. Click on "exhibition"
or "invitation: Finding Home".
this show is a collection of woven postcards
from artists in Canada and Australia.
Yes, Woven.
It seems like things all bunch up together.
Like when you realize your passport
has expired. And you need one in a hurry.
This is a week for a lot of paperwork.
Expensive paperwork.


Recently, i visited the Museum of Fine Arts,
here in Montreal.
The two views you see above,
are both the Fine Arts museum - just
different buildings across the street from each other.
The big exhibition right now is
"Catherine the Great - Art for Empire".
billed as Masterpieces from
the State Hermitage Museum of St- Petersburg.

There are lots of good luck spores
floating around this week. You might get an
unexpected windfall -- an inheritance, a surprise gift, a favour or even a lovely emotional lift that's quite special. As the Sun moves into Taurus, and Mercury flirts with Saturn, you'll feel a shift of focus combined with a determination to make serious long-range plans. It's good to think about the future - after all, it's where you're going to spend the rest of your life.
(On the other hand, you gotta be realistic, 'cause the future ain't what it used to be.)
