Chagall's America Windows
Marc Chagall. America Windows, 1977. A gift of Marc Chagall, City of Chicago, and the Auxiliary Board, commemorating the American bicentennial in memory of Mayor Richard J.Daley.
House of the Singing Winds.
In 1907, noted Hoosier impressionist painter Theodore Clement Steele (1847-1926), became the first major artist to make a home in Brown County, Indiana. The picturesque landscape (and Steele’s prominence) drew in other artists, establishing the Art Colony of the Midwest.
As Steele explored new places to paint, he discovered an isolated area of Brown County, Indiana, where he built a hilltop studio-home on sixty acres near Belmont. In August 1907 Steele married Selma Nuebacher, his daughter’s sister-in-law, and brought her to their new summer home in Brown County. Inspired by the breezes blowing through the cottage’s screened porches, they named it the House of the Singing Winds.

三只猫
院子里有三只猫，黄猫最喜欢我，一听见我的声音，就跑到我车库的门口，做各种姿势，期待着我的爱抚，是我可爱的小三。 小黑 猫，又瘦又小，胆子小，见了人紧张地观看着，随时要跑。大白猫美丽傲慢，根本不理我。
艺术不是饭勺
前几天，我干活干烦了，就决定给自己放半天假。我找了个借口，中午就走人了。去那里呢，想想还是去Long Grove吧。离公司不算太远，离家就远了，很少有机会旧地重游。
我对那里熟门熟路了。小镇上很多画廊，礼品店，很多艺术家卖自己的作品。我被这个饭勺吸引住了，喜欢它真实朴素粗犷的造型，非常的原生态。马上就买了。还问艺术家，可否当饭勺用。艺术家说就是饭勺吗。
回家洗了洗要盛饭，饭还没到碗里，把子已经断了。我心疼欲哭，悲哀地叹道：艺术不是饭勺。
