ODD Dogs, Old Dogs 5/18/07



















A BIG HEARTY THANKS to all those who made my showing at the Historic Arkansas Museum last Friday night. (And a real apology to the Mayor of Morrilton who did not catch the date-correction and showed up the night before!) To be honest, I felt loved, and was filled with joy. It meant a lot to me that neighbors, co-workers, former co-workers, Mom, wife, kids, family-in-law, lobbyists, fellow photo-buds, church family, new acquaintances and distant friends would make the trip. The work was skillfully presented by the museum curator, and along with the works of the other two artists - sang.

Thank you for making it such a special night for us.

For those who missed, you can still drop by the Historic Arkansas Museum (Trinity Gallery) for the next several months and view the photos, minus the cheese and odd music.

Thanks too, for those who supplied the name of "Flowering Almond" for the pink carnation looking things on a stick. I still haven't come to a conclusion on name of the white carnation looking assemblage, but it looks like both it and the Flowering Almond are part of the same grouping that includes roses.

The Mighty Works Project exists to share in the oddness of it all - with you, my fellow oddities.

Mother's Day Bouquette (sp?) 5/10/07









Wagon Wheels, "Mini-Praise", and lots-a'-dogs (c) by Kirk Jordan

I'm a little off on the freshness factor -- these all belong to the end of March

Pic One - I call them Wagon Wheels, though I think they are a type of फ्लोक्स
Pics Two and three- I call them Mini-praises, though I don't have any idea what they really are.
Pic Four: Standard-wonderful dogwood, outside of the entry to the Blanchard Springs Cave.

One more notice:

Invitation:

Wanted to remind you all that there will be a showing of my photo works at the Heritage Museum/Trinity Gallery with a reception this Friday Night, May 11th। Come and enjoy the band, fine cheese, and color.

Last issue I was half asleep and forgot to tell you "Why the Mighty Works Project exists" - which in turn leaves Hogan G. wondering after these many years - Why does the Mighty Works Project exist?

A: To enjoy God - silly boy.

Bonus Mother's day offering। This is a annual repost and bit long, but worth the read as I celebrate just a few of the Mighty Women in my life.
