Milestone not gravestone

I turn 60 today.  As you can see, I have much monkeying around to do.

If you know me, then you know there is a lot of life left in the tank and I intend to fully use it all.  It just keeps getting better.

It is a day of celebration for me and I want to thank everyone for their warm wishes, cards, flowers, support and thoughts.  I have so many good friends.

Thank you so much!

(If you know who took this picture using Art’s camera, please let us know.  You were on the China Photo Workshop this year.)

C A P Special Showcase Event


The Community Artists Program (CAP) had their first event Saturday at the Seattle Design Center. It was a resounding success.

Art Wolfe supports this program and in addition to the talented artists respresented by CAP, has several of his prints on view and for sale in the gallery at the Seattle Design Center. Please stop in to view the work of these artists and the beautiful images of horses that Art has created.

CAP is the brainchild of arts energizer, Anne Lancaster. CAP supports artists to be sustainable. Retailers are joining up because it supports artists and benefits the entire community. Another example of this can be seen in the window of the Safeway on Capitol Hill, Seattle. Art Wolfe has images in the Safeway window to draw attention to this unique exhibition space for artists.
