Today I attended some small and "super sessions" at the conference and also visited the exhibition hall where art schools, art supply companies and product vendors create displays for you to visit.
Then I took a break from the conference to visit the Amon Carter Museum of American Art. I thought of all my students as I saw Calder mobiles, a show focusing on images viewed with night time lighting, and Grant Wood's famous painting of George Washington chopping down the cherry tree - with Washington's adult head on a child's body (I am including a detail).
After seeing some fantastic special photography exhibits I left the museum and went to the historic Stockyard district - had some great pulled pork for lunch and window shopped for cowboy attire before heading back downtown. More conference sessions, then dinner and the night was topped off with some live country music at Billy Bob's "the world's largest honky tonk." What a full day!!!
