1. i am in a time zone and latitude 150-300 miles from places of higher learning. i haven’t seen an original artist in months. I haven’t spoken face to face to more than 1 native English speaker in 13 months. Maybe 2 if I include a man from Jamaica.

2. i have had zero income this time . So i choose carefully on my extra expenses.

3. my friend has issues at home in his distant city . if i can give him a sense of accomplishment, it can give him a life.

4. costs are likely to be lower here.

my story is not for publication. i only do this to supplement my story outline.

as a bonus, all of my family has a good eye for modern art. we just can’t draw
