at home in the world Welcome to my chronicle. I have embarked on my 'global art studio tour' (GAST). Who knows how long i'll be gone or where exactly it will take me. I hope to meet as many artists, see as many studios, and make as much art work as possible before my return. If you wish to sponsor me, you will receive a peice of artwork, of your choice, after my return at the value of which you sponsor me. (does that make sense?) Put another way, you can pre-purchase artwork from me, if you would like. The two ways to get money to me are (1)Send it to my parents who will deposit it: c/o Ron & Janine Parrish, 9102 Towanna Tr., Austin, TX 78736, USA. OR (2) email me (via this website) for Paypal information. (my account is under my email address, if you already have that.) Thanks so much. Please comment as freely and frequently as you wish on articles and picture. ~heather

Culture Galore I

TUES: After the quiet and inactivity of Nyepi, I decided this week i should get out and start seeing museums. The first, Museum Puri Lukisan, was almost entirely traditional Balinese painting. In retrospect, not my favorite museum, though it was a great introduction and some fine art -glad it was my first. All the plates were in English with the stories that the paintings depicted. I learned a LOT about bali-hindu mythology. It all reminded me of Rennaisance Christian art – same story, different artist. (not to oversimplify)

My first bright idea was to see 3 on tuesday. No. One a day is good. As there was mold growing on some of the mats in the frames, i am curious about their ideas of preservation.
