Dr. Rachel Baker showed @msjcedu faculty examples of absurd degree patterns to demonstrate the difficulties students have in completing their degrees. Here is a computer science degree path. #ucirvine #drrachelbaker #collegelife #education

I painted "Longshot" at #ucberkeley in 1982 for an assignment given by the late great #joanbown: paint a #self portrait as an animal. I'll be on a panel with other students and associates of Joan Brown at the @richmondartctr on Sunday, Sept 23, 2 to 4. #seeyouthere #bayareafigurative #richmond

Join me at @thestudioshop in #burlingame on Sept. 22nd to view six decades of paintings from Roland Petersen. Did you know that Roland studied with #hanshoffman and was the first studio art professor at #ucdavis? That's right: he was hired before #waynethiebaud. I am honored to have written the catalog for this show (available in hardbound and softbound). See you there!

It's a pleasant surprise to buy a used art book on eBay and find that it was signed by the artist: Frank Lobdell

With my @huffpostarts blog now a thing of the past, I'm taking stock and organizing my library. This shelf has a copy of every magazine, catalog and book I have contributed to: most are from the past 7 years. Looking them over makes me ask myself "What should I write next?" At any rate, some of the artists and institutions represented here include: @poetsartists @hackett.mill @anderson.collection.stanford @harvardmagazine @natsoulasgallery @mitchell_johnson_artist @daipart @artsofasia @artltdmag @fscotthess @rodpenner @kimfrohsin @conorwalton70 @jenniferpochinski @chris_liberti_paintings @rowlandavrech @christiesinc @thestudioshop
