Charlie,

Happy Thanksgiving from a big fan in the Pacific Northwest! I enjoy your video presentations and the interviews and I'm learning quite a bit from them, some I've watched more than once because of the content. I do hope you'll continue them.

I think your discussion of keeping a sketchbook is one of the most powerful and hope you'll do more on that topic. I notice that your visualization of the scene in front of you into a "Hunter" interpretation in your sketchbook is one key to transforming the subject to a painting, can you talk about that in a future talk?

I would like to contribute to the funds you support and to the continuation of your fine arts talks but since I've had some bad experiences with Substack I'd rather just send a check to you, if that's OK with you. Send me a mailing address in Bellows Falls and I'll put something in the mail.

Stay well, keep doing what you're doing! Flush the Trump!

Sounds like an interesting show and one worth seeing. Very nice remarks by you and I like how to encourage people to see her translations of a place. Frank Bettendorf

I love her work and I also love your curator’s statement about her work. “ Now quiet reigns, as the palimpsest that is the Island awaits its next chapter.” That sentence is a work of art.
