Cardinal fan since age 13 (first time our family took a newspaper). 1956 graduate of the University of Oklahoma with a degree in Physical Education. Now 74 years of age and retired. Am working on a book where I evaluate the performances of Cardinal owners and General Managers starting in 1900 up to Walt Jocketty. A lot of stats involved although not a lot of the new Sabermetrics going around. Basically enjoyed three careers. 1)US Army 2) high school teacher and coach 3) Human Resource officer with two major corporations. Have always tracked the Cardinals minor league system (Sporting News used to be great for that). At one time kept a card file on all the players in the system.If you had the opportunity, would you take a chance of a lifetime? In spite of needing to raise finances, and being scared to death (and probably a few more other things)? Let me set this up for you. I turned 60 this past summer. I wanted to do something special to mark this very significant milestone in my life. Nothing has really tripped my trigger….until now.
You all know that I am over the top Woo-Woo, and will go to great lengths to enhance my knowledge along the way.
SOOOOOOO, a very dear friend of mine is leading a lifechanging journey to South Africa in June (culminating on my 61st birthday – so this is my “something special” for my 60th year). However, something inside of me balked. Big time.
And, then, it happened. I received news yesterday that a very dear friend (who just turned 60 in January), died suddenly. Heart attack. He was one of those people that makes everyone feel special, whether you knew him for years, or a minute. He was living his dream of owning a coffee shop/bar/gallery. He was the living room of Eureka Springs. He was PFM.
It hit me. Hard. I’m his age. It made me realize how short life is. I could decide to not go, because, scared, and finances, but, would I regret it? This is an opportunity for a total reset: Mind, body, and spirit. An opportunity to deepen my art. An opportunity to heal some deep wounds.
And so, I’ve decided to totally leave it up to GUS.
I’m offering a 35% discount on ALL OF MY PAINTINGS (Click here!) on my website….even the ones that are already deeply discounted. The coupon code is CHANCE, and is good through May 23rd.
If I am meant to go….it will happen….
PS, I will be videoing and photographing others that are not on my website also….
Paula : I too turned 60 last year & celebrated with a great trip to Venice & Greece last Oct. I so want you to take this amazing trip! I’ve loved your work from afar & would like to purchase mischief makers. My iPhone keeps saying your site is “unsecure”? Can you email or call about the best way to do this? I’m a friend of Micki Sweeney- I had inquired about another piece several years ago. This art will look fabulous in my home in Crestone CO!
The time I s now? It’s now or never. Go for it. You deserve this!
You need to go. You wont regret it. If you are supposed to go the Universe will start opening doors quickly!
Says the girl who lives by the seat of her pants… goooooooo.

The Relating Systems Thinking and Design Symposium (RSD) is an annual international gathering of academics, researchers, and practitioners engaged in systemic design, a discipline that brings together systems thinking and systems-oriented design. This year, the seventh RSD took place in Turin, Italy from October 24-26th to explore the theme of “Challenging Complexity by Systemic Design Towards Sustainability”.
RSD is convened by the Systemic Design Association, co-founded by Dr. Peter Jones, an associate professor in the Faculty of Design here at OCAD, where he teaches in two graduate programs: Strategic Foresight and Innovation, and Design for Health. Both of these programs have courses in systemic design. As part of these courses, students create maps that visually illustrate complex topics, unpacking relationships, histories, and layers of a system in a way that can be more easily understood and digested. The symposium included a track for these visual maps specifically, and several OCAD student groups submitted and had their maps accepted to be presented in the RSD7 gallery.
The conference itself began with a day of workshops covering topics ranging from the idea of place in systemic design to connected products and the circular economy. The following days were broken down into parallel presentation sessions for participants to choose from based on different themes within systemic design. These were punctuated by keynote presentations from systems thinkers whose backgrounds spanned public policy, ecology, economics, farming, and architecture - a representation of the diverse voices needed across disciplines to truly think systemically. A number of OCAD faculty, Peter Jones, Greg Van Alstyne, and Michele Mastroeni, presented their work relating to systemic design. Students and alumni from Strategic Foresight and Innovation and Design for Health also presented work, including the aforementioned posters in the Visualization of Complex Systems exhibit, as well as paper presentations.
After the conference, participants were given the opportunity to attend a “de-conference” in the nearby alpine village of Ostana. Here, RSD members who founded the MonViso Institute brought attendees to visit their mountain laboratory, a community they are constructing using systemic design principles. Participants visited the buildings being constructed through net-positive, sustainable, cradle-to-cradle construction and shared meals sourced from local, seasonal ingredients produced with an emphasis on permaculture.
Overall, OCAD had a large presence at this year’s symposium, a tradition that will hopefully be continued at RSD8 next year in Chicago..By Jaslyn English
