My weblog ELECTRON BLUE, which concentrated on science and mathematics, ran from 2004-2008. It is no longer being updated. My current blog, which is more art-related, is here.

The Farmhouse at Temenos
I spent a peaceful, nature-filled weekend with a few of my friends at Temenos Retreat House near West Chester, Pennsylvania. I did lots of hiking and birdwatching. The food was hearty and delicious, and there was good fellowship as well. This was a very welcome rest from the teeming stressful ant-heap of Edge City Tysons Corner.
I also had time to sit and draw some of the old nineteenth-century buildings on the retreat center grounds. The "Old Farm House" is a historic building that is locally famous and I spent a very pleasant time on the site doing its portrait. This is not the place where I spent the retreat, that is a much more modern building elsewhere. My drawing is in ink and greyscale markers, about 7" x 10".
