Detail of Sunbathe Barbie at Bombay Beach (2009) by Jen Trute |
Well, it's been over a month since we last put up one of these
Wrap posts. I really ought to drop the "Weekly" qualifier from the title. On the other hand, I've been picking up the pace. Perhaps, we will eventually get back to a rate of production that justifies a weekly wrap.
Of course, the bulk of posts have been "image of the day" types. That's cool with me; it is better to create content and share, than let the front page stay idle. At some point, I do intend to increase the writing, reviewing, and critiquing elements of this blog. I do intend to bring back some videos and musical treats. However, for now, quickie picture posts will do the job.
And who doesn't love the occasional Barbie doll photo-blog? ;-)

So, let's look at the
Wrap:
As mentioned above, there were many image posts, ten out of eighteen in total. These included a
couple sunsets, the
Palos Verdes Promenade at night, views of
Los Angeles, the
"Pink" Moon, an
empty tram at the
Getty, a
train ride at the
South Bay Galleria, Tapwanu
masks, views of
San Diego, a
clocktower at the
Farmers Market, and another
sunset sky.
Regarding Art, we had three posts. One featured the
Richard Jackson exhibit at the
Orange County Museum of Art. Another focused on
Bad Dog, which was featured at the Jackson exhibition. Then, we looked at a few
Alebrijes. Fun stuff!!!
Two holidays were celebrated,
Earth Day and
Cinco de Mayo. Barbie was our hostess for each. ;-)
Friday Flowers were
tulips. We listened to some Native American flute music from
R. Carlos Nakai. Finally, we celebrated the thirty year anniversary of
Flashdance. Woo hoo!!!
Well, that's it for now. I'm looking forward to sharing more and more interesting images, memories, stories, and thoughts with you all over the next week and beyond. Thanks for reading!!!
