December 27, 2022

The Tuesday Night drawing group of Santa Fe drew both in person and on Zoom at the new Argos Gallery/Studio location. They arranged a hybrid real/virtual drawing session because we are still coming out of Covid.  I drew from El Paso.

John Tollett drew from the same model live in Santa Fe, while I drew from the Zoom on the laptop in El Paso.

Deborah and I stayed in Cloudcroft, NM for two nights, 20-21, December:

On December 28th I saw a lot of immigrants (from Venezuela I believe) near the border in downtown El Paso, mostly in front of Francisco Delgado's mural on the gymnasium of the Sacred Heart church.  This scene was getting a lot of attention on the national news:

Next to the Ho Baron exhibition, sharing the same large gallery space, was the Salvador Dali exhibition -- "Homage to Dante: Salvador Dali's illustrations for the Divine Comedy":
