I'm getting only ads and sites I've never heard of. Nothing from my friends' list. Anyone know how to change this?

I'm sharing this after almost 2 years. It evokes such strong feelings for me. I hope you find something moving in this painting.

La Posada was a grand success! And now The Artist’s Path will retire for a bit. Thinking of what to put up for a new banner. Suggestions?

Every day, many times a day I walk past this lovely painting by Terry Wofford. I met her at a writer’s meeting in Prescott when I was seeking folks to write short pieces for performance on the subject of Climate Change. She approached me at the end of the meeting asking if I would be interested in visual art. “Yes!”, I replied instantly.
In her home she shared many of her paintings with me but specifically asked if I were interested in Adrift. At the time it was untitled and we brainstormed in front of it landing on the word Adrift. She gave me permission to use the image in my project, Climate Change and the Arts. Upon her untimely death before we developed a deeper friendship, she bequeathed this painting to me. It is both a joy and honor to have it hanging in my home. But it is a responsibility to be a good steward of it.
Alas the pandemic hit before I could follow through on the climate change project. Someday Terry...
