Hi
I dont have time for cocktails & dont drink...but let me know how my art would help.
I have been wathching this country move towards facism for the last 20 years...& this last batch(PNAC) that has a functionally illiterate bag man is pretty spooky.
I think fear is the only tool in their toolbox & it works(like at the gas pumps last week)
most folks are unaware of the "bohemian grove"......or dont see how "family values" dismantled the middle class(voice of America)
I got a bad feelin here tho

The Artists for Obama are getting together on Sunday right?  What time, and where?   All are invited I think.   I'm looking forward to seeing all kinds of signs at the Bash.

 Ask Daddy-O to take off the Sept. 26 date from the thread title. You may get more hits. :wub:

And prepared to be awed by Skunky's painting talent.  I'm going to start calling him Dr. Folk Art- he has some [I]serious[/I] talent.

We also need painters, in addition to artists.  There are several banners for the stage that will be sketched out, and will need to be painted.   Like a paint-by-number situation- perfect for people like me who are painters, but not necessarily famous artists like Skunky.

I'm bringing some paint with brushes, too.
