Well, the morning meeting is finally over. I saw a number of new paintings and sculpture belonging to a collection I am relatively familiar with. It is always good to see new, unseen, old artwork. The pieces were primarily 17th to 19th century in age. I recognized the figures and most of the styles by region. There were two surprises that I was particularly happy to find. They were paintings that related to other paintings I have been working on. Additional pieces to the jigsaw puzzle known as Tibetan art.
The day started out very sunny but it has now become overcast with thin cloud that is keeping the temperature to a reasonable level. I did manage to get to Starbucks after the morning and early afternoon lunch meeting. Presently I am relaxing in one of my favourite Tea Houses. I like it because it is large and spacious, generally not too noisy (not today - Saturday), electrical outlets and good wi-fi. They also have non-stop Pu'ur tea and edible noodles when hungry. You of course can order any kind of food (Chinese only).
Today I will try and updated some pages on the HAR website, wi-fi willing, and add at least one new HAR News posting. Tomorrow is presently unscheduled, which I like, but Monday already has two meetings tentatively planned.
