Craig Nelson turned 65 this weekend. Hard to believe it. That leaves a really long line of artists whose lives have been shaped by his teaching, a lot of buyers with his art on their walls, and back in the day, a lot of jobs I lost to his paintbrush! ;) Happy Birthday, man, and here is to many more years on the easel. c

Decades ago, when I was in art school, I was a street artist alongside my then girl friend, Lourdes, and she drew me on the spot while I was drawing the tower at Ghirardelli Square. This image just was forwarded to me today. Still a great drawing, and I had so much more hair. We would do marker portraits of people, and add in SF icons like the bridge, and etc., for a bit more $$. Fun days. thanks, Lourdes!

My stepson Clarke had his 29th. he is a management consultant. I thought he deserved some heavy hitters in his audience.
