Just learned I will receive one of these bad boys in the fall. Very much thanking God. Very much thanking Tim Singleton, Mira Lamson Klein, & HoCo Arts.

Onward,

Just heard the news about Thomas's passing. Very sad. Praying for all who loved him--all. Very thankful for the world of folks blessed by his art. And I am one. There would no Speak Water without a picture he took on the cover.

Rest well, Brother
Rest well,

Handed down through centuries
A force of arms called gentle persuasion

Apparently nothing..."
