Florida

Sorry I’ve been missing. We took a few days off and went to see my cousins in Florida.
We hit the Ringling Museum of Art and the Big Top Circus Museum. The art was mostly the old masters stuff. They need to work on their contemporary collection.
The grounds consisted of 66 gorgeous acres where John Ringling lived. The Circus Museum was separate and really interesting. The main display was a huge 3800 square foot model of the 1919-1938 Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus by Howard C. Tibbals. This thing really blew my mind. I took a picture from above but you can’t really tell the scope of this.
I didn’t do any drawing. Sorry, Kerfe. It was really hot down here which is no excuse.
My cousin’s lovely and very pregnant wife wearing the Star Wars necklace I made her for the baby shower. All in all a very nice weekend!

I’ve been to that museum….incredible, right? Thanks for the memories and glad you had some time off. Hot weather is a perfectly good excuse for not drawing! When we take breaks, we come back more fully charged with our creativity container topped off. Glad you had fun.

A circus museum … spooky, reminds me of Ray Bradbury, all that carnival horror he did.
