Monday Morning Art: Sentinels At Dawn

This week’s art is a small acrylic painting on illustration board that was inspired by a photo I took out the window of the Amtrak Cardinal in Indiana the week before last on my way to Chicago.

I made several tries before I got the giant windmills lined up just right against the dawn sky.

They looked so serene, yet majestic…towering over the snow-covered landscape like eternal watchmen, making sure that everybody was safe.

I mean, who doesn’t love seeing these windmills? Only a complete idiot would hold some kind of Bizarro-world grudge against them.  I hate to think about such a pathetic Donald Quixote being a real person.  I mean, what kind of loser would dislike free energy that doesn’t pollute.

Meanwhile, over in radioland, Monday beginning at 2 PM on The AIR, we bring you a classic episode of Psychedelic Shack, and then at 3 PM we kick off our Christmas programming with Herman Linte’s weekly showcase of the Progressive Rock of the past half-century, Prognosis.  You can listen to The AIR at the website, or on the embedded radio player elsewhere on this page.

Psychedelic Shack can be heard every Monday at 2 PM, with replays Tuesday at 9 AM, Wednesday at 10 PM, Friday at 1 PM,  and Saturday at 9 AM. You can hear Prognosis on The AIR Monday at 3 PM, with replays Tuesday at 7 AM, Wednesday at 8 PM, Thursday at Noon, and Saturday at 10 AM.

Replacing The Radio Free Charleston Daily show at 5 PM is even more of our Holiday shows from prior years. It’ll be like that until Boxing Day, when our presentation of RFC volume Five will resume.

Tonight at 9 PM we bring you our newish Monday night line-up featuring two hours each of Curtain Call and Beatles Blast, plus six hours overnight with an assortment of our programming from Haversham Recording Institute.
