I'm not 100 % yet, that virus kicked butt. Now, Stephanie has it and the only consolation is that it seems to be a weaker version that I had (no aching bone/muscle effects). She took good care of me last week, now it's my turn.
I've been able to make repairs on the Green painting. Normally, I would blog the whole thing, but I think's it's best to move ahead and take on this big panel before me.
Ramon's late, I've been ill, the studio is so cold, I can see nostril exhalations. The next few weeks are going to be intense.
The best thing to do is to turn up the music, strap on warm gear and get to work.
Posted by Dennis at January 30, 2005 11:48 AMI have been looking and reading at/ on your site for awhile >> I enjoy it, partly because I once also resided in L.A. (It's where I was born and it's where I did my first exhibitions)and I also "continue" in what I call the "elaboration of abstraction" >>
Your recent hit from the flu and your discription of some of your paint sliding from it's intended location to a new spot on your studio floor finally poked me enough to actually let you know I am here and watching - reading - listening>>
So, may I stick my nose in here and offer a wee bit of advice ? I am going to be 60 this year and for the past several years my dear wife has insisted that we get flu shots, which we do every fall or early winter>> at first I thought it was just a bunch of hysteria, then I began to realize it was making a very big differnce, we don't get the flu and rarely get any colds >> Now I wish I had started getting the shots when I was in my forties>> I remember being in Paris once and I got really sick with a flu/cold thing, nothing I could do(it was winter and quite cold)
as far as medicine so I went to a Vietnamise cafe/bar and told the woman at the bar what was wrong and she made me this hot drink out of God only knows what and told me to sip it slowly>> took about half an hour to drink it all>> by the next moring I was 75% better>but maybe if you ask around
who knows what you might find? Green tea is also excellent>>I will be getting my shot this tuesday I will be thinking of you
As for that paint on the floor thing, well I have to ask this >> is the romance of a five hundred year old technology (pigment in linseed oil)worth the pain and long wait suffering, not to mention the occasional floor-bound swan dives of your best efforts >>? Now maybe you have already explained this and I missed it, but I know for a fact that what you are doing can be done with much greater efficiency using acrylic mediums and/or gels>> have you ever tried them or looked into it? or are you already using them and I just did not get thet part of the picture? it sure looks like old linseed to me>> anyway thats my unasked for 2-cents of advice and comment so I will put my old art nose back where it belongs>>
regards and I do hope you both will be feeling better very soon! gsC
Greg!
Thanks to google, I think I've found your work online! It seems we share a working acquantance with Jean at Cirrus, is this correct? Great stuff, Greg. Very interesting. I'd like to see more. Is there another link to be found?
All the best,

Posted by: Dennis at January 31, 2005 03:47 PMD>> I just wrote youa very long reply to your questions and comments >> and some how it was all lost without being posted >> I cannot re-do it, it took too long >> so,a few highlights>>
YES I can send ypou a jpeg but, I need an e-mail address to do it >>I am not computer smart enough to try anything else>>
Yes, I have a web-site GregCard.com, forty years of stuff plus some of my writing , not all the best images but it was what I had access to>>
I was a founding member of the Cirrus gallery in 71 or 72 or whenever it was >> before that I was with Riko Mizuno, she was showing many of the original Ferus Galley people, Bob Irwin, Ed Moses,
Ken Price along with Vija Celmins and myself, I was the "younger artist" (25) at that time>>
left cirrus around 77 >> worked with private dealer and some other galleries until I left LA in 83>>
spent 14 years just outside NYC then 5 years ago
we moved to rural western Massachusettes land of the black bear everywhere and NO culture, just very affordable studio space>>
at the moment I am not showing >> Not that I don't want to but I have a rep that makes it abit tough>> It started in L.A. all those years ago> I work all of the time wether I am showing or not, it's a choice I made many years ago , life as an artist
not an employee>> But I keep on the look out for possibilities and suggestions>>
I tried to print our little conversation but it was impossible, could we continue via direct e-mail>> you may feel like a violin player,as for myself sometimes I think I must be like those fellows who painted the cave walls>>
I want to comment on your comments to me but I am plain worn out , its been a long day, I have been working on a 100 foot wall painting for the past 6 or7 months and it's at he point where I want to paint it out and start over, we discussed it at dinner tonight but I still have not decided >>
anyway glad we were able to connect,how are you feeling today? shall we stay in touch?
regards gsC
