PUBLISHERS LETTER
Who:
Warren Zevon.
Why:
Warren was not the best by any
means, but he might have had one
of the best souls.
He had the energy that only a few
people possess, and of which others
could only dream.
He might not have had the looks or
the best skill, but those with the best
looks and skills wanted to play with him.
He never stopped until the
very end.
Who could forget his songs
Werewolves of London, Lawyers,
Guns and Money, Excitable Boy,
and all the rest?
Its funny how life works out. No
one ever told me I was going to be
a 37-year-old newspaper boy when
I grew up, delivering copies of Radius
to the towns listed here at 5 a.m.
But I wouldnt trade the feeling I get

Im going to tell you something.
When I am in the shower,
I am truly alone.
The sound of the water forced through
the showerhead is louder than my own
breathing. Its comforting.
The closer I come to telling you
anything the more nervous I am.
Nervous about what? Tell me
about yourself.
I am a mother. 59. I have thin,
brown hair.
Yes?
I dye my hair when my roots show.
I dont always have that money.
I am not as interested in sex
as I am in being loved.
I meanI am interested in sex.
I buy nice underwear.
Id like to be good at sex like
someone who can seamlessly navigate
a party of strangers.
A party of strangers?
Thats what I said.
My children are older. They live
far awaynow.
Are you still nervous?
A little.

A Fresh Take on
Interior Design
Melinda and Hal Kuehne, owners and founders of Gracious Living
Interiors, previously known as Heart of America, welcome you to
their newest reveal, GL HOME. The revamp of Gracious Living Interiors
has produced a thoughtfully assembled collection of furnishings,
art, drapes and accessories, all professionally displayed in their
newly remodeled room settings.
The Kuehnes have kept their
customer in mind, so they can explore
the collections at leisure along with
considering custom design services.
From indoor and outdoor settings to
homes and offices, GL HOME goes
beyond your expectations to provide
the inspiration needed to create the
room of your dreams.
The Kuehnes collection began in 1975,
while Hal and Melinda attended college
at Susquehanna University, where they
both had a passion for creating. They
opened their first store in 1983, and have
developed many showrooms along the
way. In this latest step on their design
journey, Melinda and Hal Kuehne have
come up with a refreshingly new look
thats in touch with todays lifestyle,
blending old world and modern designs.

From Painter to
Printmaker: A Look
at Susan Rosemans
Artie Art
3 4 / R A D I U S M A G A Z I N E / J A N F E B 2016
Susan Roseman began creating Artie Art in 2012, and has only looked forward
as this unexpected blend of humor and art developed into a line of cards, gifts,
papers, and party goods that combine fun with sentiment and charm.
Her early influences include Jon
Gnagy, Winky Dink and You, The
Bertie the Bunyip Show, and Kukla,
Fran and Ollie. The funny thing is that
she did not realize it until she began
creating Artie Art.
All those dogs that I have at the
tables are puppet-like to me. Growing
up, puppets were everywhere,on
TV, at the fairs, and always were a
childhood favorite which is why I find
inspiration in some early kids TV
shows, said Roseman.
Printmaking at the Pennsylvania
Academy of Fine Arts with printmakers
Dan Miller and Morris Blackburn had a
big impact on my art through my choice
of medium, Roseman continued. I went
from painter to printmaker. Roseman
says she is also awed and inspired by the
work of Palle Nielsen.
Rosemans brand of colorful, witty
and endlessly creative art has become
popular in other arenas, too. Artie Art
was selected for inclusion in the book
Art Dogs: 100 Postcards by Robynne
Raye. Her work is available at various
stores throughout Pennsylvania, New
York and New Jersey. And she has a
popular Etsy shop at www.etsy.com/
shop/ArtieArtCards where one can
view a number of photos displaying
her hand-carved stamps, which she
uses to create her various pieces.
