The Various and Sundry Travels of Carl the Bear

Carl is a stuffed bear made from remnant bin fur fabric and a whole lotta love--but don't let his humble origins fool you: He's a little bear with big dreams.

Sir Edmund Hillary had Tenzing, Lewis had Clark--and Carl has a photographer with just as much wanderlust as he has.

Succession, Wassily Kandinsky, 1935 Kandinsky was a member of both Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider) and, later, Bauhaus art circles, which both put out a lot of interesting art (art that even we can “get,” despite our occasional issues with modern art). This piece, as we were told by our lovely intern, perpetuated the idea of speech without words. I enjoy the play of shapes and color in each individual icon in the painting.  {Phillips Collection, Washington, D.C.} **For more information about and works by Kandinsky, visit:http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/kandinsky/ (or, you know, wiki him.)
