Michigan Picks Up the Slack for Essential Workers
A breath of fresh air and hope, via the governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer, for her state.

“Essential workers eligible include workers staffing hospitals and nursing homes, stocking the shelves at grocery stores, providing child care to critical infrastructure workers, manufacturing personal protective equipment, protecting public safety, picking up trash, or delivering supplies,” reported WWMT West Michigan.

Though it’d be great if this program was expanded to all workers in her state, this is the kind of beginning that carries much hope and encouragement.

The benefit financially to employers to have staff and workers retrained to an even more professional level should be immense.

If folks know of other programs like this in the US, please post in the comments 😊

Thanks so much for stopping by, stay hopeful ❤️

• The Old American Artist by Felipe Adan Lerma – Twitter Excerpt SeriesJuly 10, 2020
  Looking back at older work, like my 80s acrylics or 2000s water soluble oils, can be lots of things : sobering 😂 and, when I spot patterns of motifs or preferences in my work, very helpful for me, enabling me to see enduring patterns of interests. The same, it turns out, even with its own variations, is true for other art forms I’ve worked out most my life, like writing, whether patterns of expression and beliefs within my blog posts, or, in the case of The Old American Artist – a semi-autobiographical literally fiction-like novella, connections right back to my most enduring focus. Art ❤️

  I’ve worked on Lady in Paris 1889 in-between some smaller watercolor (vs acrylic pieces), though a lot of the new touches to this work have been watercolor paint w/matte acrylic medium, basically making it an acrylic, but with some watercolor features, like the particular pigments I really wanted to use 😊
