Face Masks
Yes, I have succumbed ...
Sitting, as we are, in our studios, dens, or other corners of our locked-down homes with nothing exciting to do...
You want to venture out? Willing to take the risk of meeting one of those bad viruses? Or worse, the neighborhood nanny checking up on the proper dress of the few passers-by, at appropriate social distances of course?
Fear not! The solution is here. Yes, right here on this site. Here is my offering to your well-dressed appearance in these times of doom.

Lonely Studio
My Lonely Studio
Actually my studio is a pretty active place. There is always something brewing, or cooking, or in progress. Not many of my creations get shared. Those that do, are mostly proudly shown in my blog Silver Canvas. Prints of a much smaller group are also available at Ludwig-Keck.pixels.com.
According to WordPress I have over a hundred follower at Silver Canvas. In the WordPress Reader my posts show up in an fascinating way. The listings are fascinating in their own right. For several reasons. Let me show you some recent listings.
Aren't these fine images as they are cropped here?
There is something else interesting in these screen clips. Note the little star symbol. Next to that are small numbers, not for all of them. The largest number is 4. That's how many readers saw and "liked" the image. I'm not complaining. Three or four out of a hundred is actually pretty good response.
What fascinated me is that I am one of the rarest seen artists. You, my dear reader, are most appreciated by me. Thank you for reading.

The Marine
There are seven sculptures by Chad Fisher at the Peachtree Corners veterans Monument. One of them has been the subject of several of my posts on my other blogs. I thought I might as well join in here and show you "The Marine".
For more photos of this sculpture see my post "The Marine" on my other Cafe Ludwig blog.

World Elephant Day
Trunks up! This is World Elephant Day!
Way back, many decades ago, when I had just come to the United States, I was enrolled in high school and they picked classes for me that they thought would be appropriate for a sixteen year old kid who didn't speak much English. One of the classes was "Shop". My teacher gave me a block of wood and instructed me to sculpt an elephant. I didn't even know the English names for the most common tools, my artistic skills did not extend to sculpture, so I was totally lost.
I have since been told that sculpting an elephant is easy, "you just chip away everything that doesn't look like an elephant". Back then I really had no idea on how to proceed. So I looked around for some other class. When I told my shop teacher that I was switching to physics he was aghast, "you are giving up shop for physics???" He just couldn't understand that to me me physics seemed easier than shop.
Many years later I received this hand-sculpted elephant as a gift from my mother. It has an honored place on my desk.
Happy World Elephant Day to all! Trunks Up!!
