Obviously we’re taking a break from “the veiling of the self” collection. We’ll get back to it later though.
Enjoy the summer!

Hal’s Garage – Fayetteville, Ohio
Another road side gas station with a sense of nostalgia. The day was long and filled with rain. I’d been driving west on Route 20 for most of the day when I found this scene. The dismal weather forced me to seek refuge at a local motel. The early morning skies were sunny and clear.
Full disclosure. If you happen to pass by Hal’s Garage, you’ll notice that the trunk lids displayed as awnings are white. I decided to get creative and add some color.
The image was captured using my Wisner 8x20 on Bergger 200 and tray processed in Xtol 1:1. The digital image was then hand-colored in Photoshop.
Hal: "Listen, I still think I'm your prince. Do you want to know why?"
Apple: "What is your story?"
Hal: "Well, I wasn't born a prince."

This is for a friend's b-day present, along with the dvd.

I'm going to have to add lots of these big stars to the quilt - maybe with fussy cut centers?

Apple: "Come in, Hal."
Hal: "Thank you, Apple. I know I haven't had the chance to talk since your birthday party, but I...I would like to talk now."
Buongiorno, signori. Io sono un elaboratore HAL 9000. Entrai in funzione alle Officine HAL di Verbana, nell'Illinois, il 12 gennaio 1992.

Willem Coymans (1623–1678) was a member of one of Holland's wealthiest merchant families. Their crest of oxen heads hangs on the wall; the Dutch name Coymans literally translates as "cow men." Below the shield, a Latin inscription states that Willem was 22 years old in 1645. Hals rarely dated his pictures. Since his few dated paintings normally also provide the subjects' ages, the inscriptions must have been requested by the patrons to serve as genealogies.
Hals was the first portraitist who consistently depicted his subjects seated sideways, with their arms hooked casually over the backs of their chairs. Coymans, an elegant dandy proud of his expensive clothes, wears an embroidered jacket and sports a pom–pom on his hat, which is pushed forward rakishly. Hals' dazzling brushwork is especially evident in the gold embroidery and the crisply pleated shirt–sleeve.

KSMO (Santa Monica Municipal Airport) - 04 MAR 2007
Hal Fishman in his BMW leaving Santa Monica Airport.
Hal is a local news anchor on KTLA Channel 5. He is the longest-running news anchor in the history of American television.
*** Update ***
Hal Fishman's last broadcast was on July 30, 2007, eight days before his death.
On July 31, 2007, the night before Fishman became ill and after his last broadcast, KTLA celebrated his 47 years in television with a special gala at the Autry National Museum in Los Angeles. The event was emceed by Morning Show anchor Michaela Pereira and attended by such dignitaries as Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Los Angeles County sheriff Lee Baca. During the gala, Fishman spoke to the audience about his time in television. He appeared somewhat fatigued but little would be known about his condition until the day after.
Fishman died August 7, 2007 at home, 18 days before he would have turned 76, following recent treatment for a liver infection, which had detected cancer in his liver and colon. That morning, the station interrupted its regular news schedule and dedicated much of the Morning Show and Prime News broadcasts to Fishman. The reporters on Prime News did not break for commercials that evening. His body was soon cremated.
Only 29 blocks to go, Lily Peeps! Now is the time to get serious about the layout of dear HAL.
I've had many, many thoughts about color layout and really ought to do a blog post about them to solicit input and advice from you, my quilty friends. So, tonight I will sleep and mull it over then try to put my thoughts and questions into words tomorrow.
