Orvieto
Off to Orvieto this morning to visit some of my favorite paintings by Luca Signorelli and the duomo they are in.

Steve and Sharon Daly dropped by CF for a visit this week and we are expecting the Hale's this weekend.

We had our mid term crit of drawing students first project. Hope JBJ can get photos so I can put some images up. There was was a lot of very good work. Now off to final project and Rome all next week. Time flies.

More rain daily here with more forecast for Orvieto today.

Back to ping pong last night. Ankle is healing slowly but surely. Still using an ankle brace but colorful bruising has faded.

No swimming yet. Pool not open. The weather is too cool and damp.

Along with sketching architecture on our outings I've started a small book of imaginary towers in planning to make some paintings of the same. So yesterday when searching for images leading to abstraction I ran into this painting by Mondrian. Yes! Coincidenza bella!

Wow. That's a beautiful little Mondrian.

***Tumblin’ Dice***

Women think I’m tasty, but they’re always tryin’ to waste me
And make me burn the candle right down,
But baby, baby, I don’t need no jewels in my crown.

’cause all you women is low down gamblers,
Cheatin’ like I don’t know how,
But baby, baby, there’s fever in the funk house now.
This low down bitchin’ got my poor feet a itchin’,
You know you know the duece is still wild.

Baby, I can’t stay, you got to roll me
And call me the tumblin’ dice.

Always in a hurry, I never stop to worry,
Don’t you see the time flashin’ by.
Honey, got no money,
I’m all sixes and sevens and nines.
Say now, baby, I’m the rank outsider,
You can be my partner in crime.

But baby, I can’t stay,
You got to roll me and call me the tumblin’,
Roll me and call me the tumblin’ dice.

Oh, my, my, my, I’m the lone crap shooter,
Playin’ the field ev’ry night.

Baby, can’t stay,
You got to roll me and call me the tumblin’ dice, (call me the tumblin’)
Got to roll me, got to roll me, got to roll me (oh yeah)
Got to roll me. got to roll me, got to roll me ( keep on rolling, keep on rolling)
