    City of Sedona ArizonaSedona AZ (July 31, 2021) – The city of Sedona celebrated July’s Moment of Art on July 13, 2021, with Sedona resident Robert Albrecht, by unveiling and receiving the donation of his digital painting of Police K-9 Max.

    Albrecht’s painting is his way of honoring the work and difficult situations handlers face with their K-9’s to protect the community.

I paint subjects that will touch people’s hearts and imaginations. Rather than walk past my art, my hope is that it almost forces them to stop and take in the untold story,” said Albrecht.”I was delighted when Robert offered to provide a digital painting of our police dog. K-9 Max is a very important and cherished member of the Sedona Police Department and will now be remembered forever through the display of Robert’s magnificent portrait of Max. We are very fortunate to serve a community where world class artists reside. I greatly appreciate Robert’s generosity and interest in supporting our police department in such a meaningful manner,” said city of Sedona Police Chief Charles Husted.

    “I learned about the impressive quality and breadth of Robert’s photography and digital painting talents after visiting his studio years ago. Unveiling his painting with Chief Husted to City Council with Max and his handler present was truly a special Moment of Art!” said Arts and Culture Coordinator Nancy Lattanzi.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
