NPR recently published a story about entrepreneurship in my city:  Cleveland!  It features a brief interview with my friend Pat Washington.  Pat also reads a "letter to Cleveland" she penned-- at the end of Segment B.  I've been raving about what a good writer she is for a while now and this is further proof!  To have a listen, visit the NPR State of the Union website, here.

  1. These cat paintings are so great! The gray fur looks so rich and soft, makes me want to stroke his back. I love the expression on his face in this one.

  7. And let me mention, again here, that DIANE was the one who tipped me off t the Dear Cleveland contest. Yep! And, by the way, have you seen the portrait she did of my kids, years ago? Click here to see:

    And, Di, love the liquid look in this cat's face. The whiskery wiskers, too. :-) Great job.

  9. Beautiful softness again Diane. I love these cat paintings and the simplicity of the surroundings verge on an abstract feel.

  10. Love the cat paintings, Diane. I like how all your subjects seem to be vehicles for exploring color, mood and paint surface...your "real" subjects?
