San Fransisco Museum of Modern Art (SF MOMA) has not only a great little collection of some of my favorite painters but also a very nice cafe on the roof top with Minimalism inspired treats. The cake reminds me of my favorite artist Agnes Martins striped pastel paintings and at the same time the cream colored building material in the work of Clay Ketter.  Maybe I got so inspired because I miss my studio and painting, anyway, the absolutely best part was the solo exhibition with the photographer Rineke Dijkstra. I seen her work many times before; strong and simple portraits with great presence. They always get stuck in my memory and it was great to see both the work I never seen before and the ones I only had in my mind.

Here are some of my favorite paintings:
