Why am I not surprised you collect art, Rocky.
Have too much artwork here, but only buy what I
fall in love with: a regular event. Vegetable dyed
hand-woven cotton tribal rugs are so exciting; Silk
rugs so elegant. From an investment viewpont,
was glad to see Fafard hit Sotheby's. Pars.

Hi Pars, I saw Fafard's exhibit at the Glenbow a couple
of years ago. Weird but unique! There are some real
treasures on the prairies that some people just
consider junk. I wish I had deeper pockets!

We showed breeding stock for years, hence....

There are some extraordinary prairie artists....
Say Rocky have you ever poked a peek at Owen
Garratt's work? He calls himself The Pencilneck.
If you want to play Santa with me for Christmas,
Rocky, and commission Klause' oil rig for me, I'll
put cookies out for you. LOL. Pars.

I should have added ...breeding stock hence the
Fafard herd in the cabinet.

Rocky, who's works did you buy? Pars

Hi Pars, as a matter of fact I have an Owen Garrett
limited edition print titled Harvest 1954. Bought it
at a silent charity auction. A steal!. Came with
documents. If you want to see something really cool
check out Patrick Douglas Cox through the website
of Masters Gallery in Calgary. He'd be perfect to do
a scape of Klaus's rig, but check the prices on his
work. First I'd like one of me on my motorcycle by a
shimmering wheat field, but I choked when he came
back with a quote. Those cookies would really have
to be special, lol!

I bought 2 Richard S McDiarmid and a Mike Svob. Not
sure they are still on the net. Have lots of pottery by
Keyes and glasswork by Johanssen. A vast collection of
MedAlta pottery including a 25 gal. pot and numerous
other things. My dream is to own a Krieghoff original.

US government just sent us back tax from Las
Vegas win. Enough for another trip. We change
our money on TD Waterhouse. Flick of the finger
and almost no exchange.

Just went to pdcox and liked The banjo player.
Lots of rural sentiment. Click on Bev Tosh on
front page. Friend of mine. Pars

I REALLY like mike Svob. Such wonderful colors
and I like his technique with acryllic. Thanks for
sending me to him. Pars

Such wonderful prices...yowser. About 10 or 12 paintings would buy a quarter of land.

Jagfarms: It occurs to me you and your wife are an example of the 'good' humans are capable of. Those will be some very lucky children and become fine people too. I miss mine everyday.
Godspeed
