well i never

Long-time favorite Louise Bourgeois did this drawing (that I haven't seen until today) in the 40s. See this drawing of mine (et al). Sigh. There is no new thing under the sun. But it is fun to remix what is here. That's really all we are... remixers with unique perspectives (or so Mr. Rogers told me-- there is no one like you in all the world). I've been having a conversation on Facebook that makes me want to trace my artistic genealogy. It borders on self-indulgent, but I'd like to do it here on la blog. Coming soon... installments of art-families that have influenced and continue to influence me. I'm going to stick with big names; even though many many friends and teachers have influenced me, I don't want to leave anyone out or do any strange second guessing.
