So pleased to see a photo by Jim Richardson as the National Geographic Photo of the Day.
I’m also pleased to see paintings of holy men and nude women on the same wall.

Don Weddle, Ship of Fools
photo © Jim Richardson
I’ve had this postcard of Don Weddle’s Ship of Fools pinned to my studio wall for a couple of years. When I walked into Jim Richardson’s Small World Gallery (a wonder in and of it self) I was so pleased to find one of my favorite themes in art in the little town of Lindsborg, Kansas.
Don Weddle studied art at Bethany College, The Art Institute of Chicago, and The University of New Mexico. Don is retired from teaching high school art in Wichita and interestingly, was an early mentor to another artist whose work I admire, Tom Otterness.
