We’ve reached another milestone: Month 3 of our online art gallery.
For the past quarter of a year — yikes! — our readers have shared their remarkable creativity and spirit. Throughout the pandemic — and now, the latest social upheaval — you’ve sent us your work. Your many moods are reflected in your paintings, collages, sketches, photos, sculptures, cartoons and videos.
Please keep ’em coming. Professional, amateur, old, young — we want it all. Student submissions are particularly welcome!
The only rule: It must be inspired by, reflective of, or otherwise related to the times we’re going through. Email dwoog@optonline.net.

Werner Liepolt was one of my great teachers and his English classes were always a favorite. His painting is kind of creeping me out though I must say; looks like it could be the cover art for a new Stephen King novel.
It’s a still life painting of some 19th century, European toys, puppets, and papier-mâché we recently inherited and quickly put up for auction.
Check Bertoia auctions if interested in the toys.
