This is a continuation of the December 6th, 2015 article about Sexy Survivor Lingerie for the Holidays. Back in November I traveled to New England and visited a few business colleagues, now breast cancer survivors.

I came across this image of Alexander McQueen’s 10th anniversary celebratory skull scarf some time ago. I think that my daughter, a fine artist, sent it to me because of its creative collaboration with Damian Hirst. I have never been a pink person, or a lover of bugs, or for that matter into skulls. But this rendition of Mcqueen’s skull pattern, formed by 30 separate insect designs culled from … Read More
A few days ago, while in San Jose de Cabo, I happened upon the Ivan Guaderrama Art Gallery. Maybe it was his joyous use of color, which definitely drew me in, but I found myself lingering. This painting, whose photograph I took with my phone and thus the lighting renders it less bright, reminds me of the underwater spectacle one can see when snorkeling at Santa Maria beach.
