our tour guide, whose name was something that sounds like, but probably is not, Ruben, made two emphatic points as he began our tour:

 

1) the "Incas" are misnamed. "Inca" was the word that the people who ruled this region used to describe the man who ruled over them all, their king. Ruben said the actual *people* were the Quechua (pronounced "KAY-choo-ah"), and that the empire they created should rightfully be called Quechuan. the teeny amount of Web-based research I did after getting home doesn't exactly bear this out -- it seems more like Quechua was one of the *languages* spoken here, but that we don't actually know what name the people used to call themselves (as a whole).

 

2) Hiram Bingham did not discover Machu Picchu in 1911. an 11-year-old boy did. the expedition Bingham undertook to find the remains of lost Incan cities led him to this mountain, which at the time was completely overgrown with vegetation. at one point, he came across a family, and while staying with them asked if they knew of any ruins nearby. the kid said something to the effect of, "yeah, i was playing baseball over there last week," and led him to Machu Picchu. Bingham was not actually looking *for* Machu Picchu, but rather a place known as Vilcabamba, which was believed to be the last refuge of the Incas in their war against the Spanish.

 

many of the artifacts uncovered during those initial excavations of Machu Picchu still reside in the United States. apparently, Bingham brought them back with him promising U.S. researchers would study them and then return them. but the U.S. hasn't quite gotten around to the "returning" part, apparently claiming that Peru has not proven that it has the ability to properly care for them. (our guide said a new museum was being set up that should hopefully pave the way for their return; for now, the artifacts remain at Yale University.)

I stumbled upon this juggling lesson after the second joust.

Lessons and Carols at Sacred Heart University's Chapel of the Holy Spirit - photo by Tracy Deer-Mirek 12/06/15

Logan is taking swimming lessons. He's a Tiny Tot, and here he is in

his second day. Really, he should be a Water Baby, because he's only

2 1/2 and Tiny Tots start at 3 years old. But goodness knows he's as

big as all the Tiny Tots, so it's all good.

 

He's doing wonderfully! He tries to follow instructions. But as you

can see in this photo, none of the kids has much of an attention

span. Logan loves kicking, floating and blowing bubbles. And we're

working on him not climbing out of the pool to run over and get me to

join him in the water: "Mama! Mama! Mama! Mama!" This is he first

class without me right there with him, and I do appreciate that he

wants me to share in the fun!

 

So, two weeks from now, he'll be ready for the deep end!

Another Art Lesson…

 

Carol's First Tonal Painting

The first assignment Prof. David Moore gave to Carol was to copy a well-known Max Meldrum print. But the important point of this lesson was to get Carol to accurately see and understand the picture's tones. Shapes and other detail were not important and were forced into lesser focus by David hanging the reference painting upside-down. This insured the subject would not distract her eye away from the tones.

 

For several weeks Carol would attend the class and concentrate on painting the lights and darks accurately. When David was eventually satisfied, he took Carol's painting and turned it so it could be viewed correctly. It was quite successful! Carol had done a good job with the tones and so the overall look and feel of the painting came across satisfactorily well. This first assignment helped Carol get on the road to understanding and comprehending the importance of tonal values, and how to 'squint down' in order to see and separate them.

 

My painting shows the evening Carol brought her painting home and explained everything to me. I was impressed! In the many years since this event took place, I have gotten so familiar with correct tones that I was able to paint from a bad photo which didn't even have tones in it. For years I had thought the photo was useless due to bad exposure but I recently decided to force a viewable image just visible enough that I could use it as reference in creating this art piece. With a bit of Photoshop tweaking I was able to see Carol holding her painting, just the way I remembered, and the mirror next to her reflecting another perspective of it all. The picture gave me a reference and I guessed at the tones to get the painting to come-out decently.

 

So the reality of my piece is that it conveys a Max Meldrum, David Moore, Carol White, Philip White piece of art!
