Very Impressive!

Hey Jon,
I perused JC's site and his work is very very impressive. Not that I know a damn thing about art, except what I like. And, I like his stuff. There is a painting in one of the cafe links that has one of the Roman emperors and it's not a crinkled paper one that I think is fantastic. That's not to say that I don't like the crinkled ones, I do. In fact, I really enjoyed his explanation of them and I'm not sure if this means anything, but if I'd had to guess what he was trying to do prior to reading that blurb, I would have guessed right. I never know if artists want average joe's to try to figure out their inspiration or not. For all I know, that could be an insult...too uptight or something.
Birmingham has a flourishing art scene and after reading your email and seeing JC's work, I'm inspired to go take some of it in.
Anyhoooooo, tell him I said hey when you get a chance and that I was really impressed by the work they did in Chile. Although, it seems as if that was 2 or more years ago.

Time flies, eh?
Miss you all.
Kristin

ps. If anyone hears what flavor the new Walsh is going to be--do tell! If not, let's start taking bets. I'm betting on a boy.
