Dinner at Connie and Jinou's
It's always so nice to put work and obligations aside to spend time with friends. We recently had dinner with our best friends Connie and Jinou, and true to form, Jinou prepared a wonderful dinner of scallops and wild rice, and topped it off later in the evening with berries and heavy cream!
They have one of the best painting collections I have ever seen, with some of the best of the California Impressionists and major southwest talent.
A few years ago they started collecting pottery from the American Arts and Crafts period and they now have some exquisite pieces.
To the left is a pair of birds by Jinou. They stand about eight inches high and their heads are actually "lids" and can be removed. I love these!
Jinou's pots have become very successful; he is selling an average of two a week at El Presidio Gallery.
We each had to have a go at relief carving on some of the pots I threw, but Rebecca's koi wins the blue ribbon!
To the left is David's carving of dragonflies. Of course I had to do flowers on mine.
Newest paintings. To the left is a painting of Torch Cactus which will be used as the 2007 Tucson Chamber Music poster. David took along his latest painting to Connie and Jinou's. It is a brilliant painting of Christopher Marlowe.
