Still Friday

Friday, after cleaning the studio, we had an open house at Oxbow with up to 100 in attendance. Visitors wandered around the grounds from studio to studio. I had put up the green-white banner on the wall which reached along a-wall-and-a-half. "Widow's Banner" also a print "Widows" and my double flag "Flag for Iraq"

Later at the benefit auction, a "Widows" artist's proof was purchased for $70 to go Oxbow.
