Man! Seems like this took forever. I keep thinking that my slowness in working is just an organic approach. There’s no need to hurry, and even if I wanted to hurry, it’s impossible. Plants grow at their own speed, you know? Depends on rain, sunshine, food… But, organic.
And so, when my two helpers sort of got eliminated, one, because her boyfriend got shot dead, and the other because we have serious person-ality conflicts, I had no choice but to go ahead and do it myself. My niece has since offered to help because she’s some experience with this, but I went and wrote it. After doing some research on the internet. Will send her a copy to see what she suggests.
Ended up with something like 9 pages, and then I decided to include images of the Sculpture Oasis and the Egg. The Oasis to show that a lot of work has happened already, which should show people that this isn’t just a “pipe dream”, but a serious endeavor. And images of the Egg to show the progress of this idea. Am really glad that Ostap, the architect, is coming for a visit. Can talk a lot of things over. Was sort of thinking already that I should just ease up about all this because he’s coming with his wife and is probably just enjoying their road-trip.
Moving along. Took a copy of this proposal to Barbara so she can look it over and tell me her ideas. She was an English professor and is a very fine mind. Different people I want to involve with these copies; the NPR radio station in El Paso. Their Arts programmer. Different people here in Columbus…
