Greetings DDV,

I trust that this letter fines you well and things going well for you.
Enclosed please find the two paintins you requested and I hope that they are two your liking.
As you requested I have made the Skull clown on the larger canvas so that they would both be the same size. Skull clown is regularly done on a 10 x14 canvas panel. Pogo the clown of course is the most popular clown painting I do and its also has gotten the most news media attention as you can see by the enclosed clip. It has been used on book covers front and backs, and even on Record albums.not to mention the number of magazine articles which carry this most famos clown painting. I have done over 100 of Pogo and no two are alike.

I trust that your showing is doing well it must be nice to be appearing with your wife at the same time. How is the problem with your finding a place? Sounds like you had it made where you were at, such a large place for only $150.00 a month.

Nothing new with my case as the appeal is dragging on we are due to file in the fall of this year and this is directed at the Federal court where we hope to get some relief since these judges are appointed for life and don't have to worry about getting elected, or public pressure. They will deal with the issues based on the law. Not much has been in the news so thats good in a way as we don't have to put upwith the media and their fantasy as they never get the facts right and even if they have them they print what they want anyway.

Take care for now and write when you receive this so that I know it got to you as I have no way of knowing on overseas mail unless I hear back from the person.    Take care for now we are in the hot summer weather at this end so I am not much into writing with the temp running in the 90's and we have humidity which runs right up to it, being in the middle of the country. Enclosed is the photo of Pogo the clown which is actually me.

Later,

       Regards,




John.
