Art I’ve Found

Giulio Aprin

I love Giulio’s bio, “Storyteller of Deserts.”

You may just think of a desert as a barren wasteland, but Giulio Aprin will show you that, as he explains, “The desert is peace and desolation, a place as dead as it is alive. But the desert is also resilience and perfection. The desert is a woman, with curves so soft and smooth, sensual and delicate….The desert, like all forces of nature, is a mirror of what we are.”

His story is fascinating, so explore the desert through the eyes of Giulio, you will find it a thing of beauty.

My Art

Kauai From the Air

It might seem scary, but if you ever make it to Kauai, Hawaii, I suggest you splurge on a tour from a helicopter. Just be sure to position yourself by the window!

Music I’ve Found

Tito Puente

I love when people make me reconnect to some of the classics. In this case I was told to revisit Tito Puente, who I wasn’t really familiar with.

If you want a party time, go ahead and fire up a Tito Puente playlist on your favorite music source.


My Dorky Song

Ignore the World

Now that The Olympics are over you might find yourself doom-scrolling and thinking the world is a horrible place.

Take a break, quit the scrolling, at least for a little while. You might feel better.


One More Thing

Googly Eyes

So you’ve just bought a Tesla Cybertruck, but you want to be a little less conspicuous as you drive your tank down the road.

Give it some personality!

And yes, you can buy giant “googly eyes” on Amazon.


Thanks always for your interest!
