This is my first plein air painting of the season. I drove over to the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm east of us this morning and spent about an hour and a half walking through the fields and working on this painting. It was beautiful weather and not too crowded in the middle of the week. Read more about it on my blog at: art.blodget.net/2018/04/25/wooden-shoe-tulip-fields/ .

Fiction: February, 1988. Seeing Janice, his ravishing young assistant, perform the Linking Rings trick in a musical form, Brad Byrd ("The Devil") immediately stops her and puts her in a trance. Then, the Devil ties Janice in a large sack, places her in a steamer trunk, locks it, and sets it ablaze, hoping that she won't come out of it alive. Seeing how nervous and terrified the audience is, the Devil extinguishes the fire, unlocks the trunk, and looks inside...an empty sack. Janice has vanished! Neither hide nor big hair of her.

Fiction: Honoring Prince and his rich musical legacy, TK and Tracie, two members of the Junior DRiBBL3 basketball martial arts team, render a special performance on the court
Note: Today marks the fifth anniversary of the passing of one of the world's most talented and creative spirits.
Prince, one of my inspirations and favorite artists, left us with an enormous body of energetic, provocative, and feel-good music. However, I feel that his real legacy for us, for me...is the burning desire to keep making something beautiful and meaningful. And continue sharing that source of joy, pride, and passion with others. Although I created it ten days earlier, this is my tribute to Prince.

Ink and pen on paper
When I teach physics I love to use the history of the Atlatl to illustrate the concept of impulse. It effectively increases the radius of the throw and keep the force on the spear for a fraction of a second longer to increase the speed and killing power of the spear. It was a very successful human invention that was used up until about a few thousand years ago.
