I had a studio assistant tonight. My nephew Max was here for the evening. First he did his own painting while I carved more on the Henry IV statue block I've been working on.

Then he rolled ink and pulled the proof press roller across to print my first look at this one. I still have a ways to go in the sky, but it's coming along.

I did forget about kids and clothes, though. His grandmother is going to have to wash his school pants tonight. Sorry, Pat!
