stan kenton is one of his favorite band leaders. "when he'd play, you have to back away from the band stand. kenton was loud."
dr. kerry ainsworth spoke of many of the great band leaders -- and great swing bands for that matter during our portrait session.
we chatted over many things -- comparing contemporary relationships/matrimony to previous generations, ins and outs of health care reform, folks in canada, and of course music -- keely smith, the four freshmen, cugat, and a few others.

. . . reading up on manet prior to et's portrait.
years ago i saw his 'olympia' in france. it hit me -- much bigger than the color plates and art history class slides -- 51" x 74". big. big and stark. in your face.
anyhoo, my take is manet painted what he saw -- his personal view -- flesh was rendered to his liking, whether pale or flushed, flat or with volume. 'olympia' along with 'le dejeuner sur l'herbe' caused quite a stir in the art world.
this is my personal view of et. the charms on her necklace are for each of her children and grandchildren. seven charms in all.
