while still tracking down the rainbow made out of pee, I tripped over this: http://www.davearcher.com/story.html What makes it so fascinating is that I was exhibiting at one of those small arts&crafts shows with Ron Russell... probably around Thanksgiving 1981 in Fresno. We were the only 2 people in the building (perhaps in Fresno) who spoke the same language... the rest of the show was flowers, cowboys, and drek. I didn't even have a teakettle to my name (had just left my husband) but sold the silver dollars my grandmother had given me as a kid to buy a space painting on glass from him. It is in my bedroom with all the rest of the space paintings I've acquired over the years. Ron told me not to drop it, so I haven't even dared to reframe it. But yes, painting on glass like this and frying it, is a very different way to make art... sometimes the unexpected works. Carolly
