Abstraction in Providence

Went up to Rhode Island College's Bannister Gallery last night to see the show "Abstraction in Providence". This painting by Lloyd Martin held my attention for some time. From the catalog, " Lloyd Martin employs strategies whose narrative is derived from a real world reference that considers a compositional blueprint as an underpinning. He eloquently expresses a cadence that is rhythmic, mathematical, and ordered in context."

Sushi Bar

At the Marriott Beach Resort on Marco Island they just put in this fabulous sushi bar with a ceiling to sofa tank filled with these jellyfish. Memorizing! One of those cool circular sofas backing up against the tank. Crazy!
