A good part of this sunny day my wife and I spent with art, craft and music. We picked and framed 10 works of our deceased son’s art for NAMI (National Alliance for Mental Illness) art show. In the process we discovered more art of my son. He was a prolific and creative artist. On his web page, Peter’s Art Peter said he wanted to share his art. It is sad he could not do this for himself but it is important for us to do so.
The craft project was making T shirts for an upcoming nonviolent action. A friend told us about a technique to design on a computer and print artwork on transfer paper. We then iron it on a T shirt. The first one worked today and hopefully there will be many more before our nonviolent action.
The music was at a celebration and fund raiser for a friend that has been active in the peace movement for many years. The musicians were familiar ones, like Harvey Taylor and audience was full of persons from the peace scene in Milwaukee.
Sadly we remembered during the concert that we have forgotten to turn off the iron after putting on the transfers on the T shirt. We left early and discovered we had left the iron on. However, technology saved us since the fan was on but not hot. The heat element had automatically turned off. We missed some good music but where glad to be home and safe.
I got a little compost making done today but it was mostly about art, craft and music.
