The Kipton event is moved until April 29th and I feel that I am actually for once truly ahead of the game.

Although I am astonishingly punctual, perhaps it’s because I always have the feeling that I might be terribly behind.  All of this may come from the fact that I was a very overdue first baby and was ultimately induced on July 2nd so that my mother’s obstetrician could have his scheduled 4th of July weekend as planned.

All of the pieces are 95% ready and I’m hoping to have time to do a few more live drawings (while listening to the sonatas of course.)

Somehow the Keith Jarrett recording of the Goldberg Variations — which I realized I’ve owned for over a year — has suddenly now become my latest obsession.   Having grown up with them via Gould and my more recent passion for Simone Dinnerstein, it’s so intriguing to hear them on the harpsichord.  I began looking at buying one on ebay today and I am only a canvas or two away from owning one, it seems.

Here’s one more from Symmetry, and one of the newly painted dropbacks and a drawing for good measure (It makes me happy that the drawings are in the affordable price range for almost everyone.  Perhaps I should market them — versus couture — as my “ready-to-hang” line….)

Oh, and you have to click on the dropback to enlarge it and see the full-image….
