There's this vacant store near where I live. Wouldn't it be cool to have this place as an art studio?

Photo(s) Friday

On my morning walks, I pass by a elementary school. The composition of the colored, plastic chairs caught my attention so I played around with cropping the same photograph. I'm not sure if I will use any of the images in my art. It was fun to see if I could make the same photograph more pleasing to my eye.

I was at the Trader Joe's in Toluca Lake and noticed this message from a street artist named Casio. I couldn't find much information about this artist. There's other images of this same message here and here.

Beyond the Edge Fiber Artists - "My Inner Self Portrait" exhibit

Beyond the Edge Fiber Artists' exhibit called "My Inner Self Portrait" is traveling to Savannah. I first blogged about the exhibit in here.


Mancuso Show Management
October 15 - 18, 2015
Santa Clara Convention Center
Santa Clara, CA

A fine arts fiber exhibit exploring aspects of self-portraiture. In this exhibit the artist was asked to look beyond the mere physical and instead present an inner view. The art work may reflect how the artist sees themselves at this time, or at a formative moment in their life. Each piece reveals something unique to the individual and at the same time, that which is universal to all.

My piece is called Becoming Me is included in this exhibit.This artwork is a part of the “Peel Away The Layers” series that I started when I was approaching my 50th birthday.  I realized that I was peeling away the layers to become the woman that I am today.  Underneath the layers is a slightly wonky, colorful woman.
