By being non-juried, there was no consistency in theme or quality of work. But it didn't matter. That's not what the show was about. It was about having a good time and showing some work that normally wouldn't get seen.The air was filled with the music of The Ray Walker Swing Band with 20 musicians on stage. The dance floor was active with those who had taken lessons in swing dancing and those just having fun. The rooms were filled. The food good, the wine poured.
One of my favorite paintings is by Carole Watanabe. I love her bright colors and exuberance for life. Her website shows more. And her book, The Ecstatic Marriage of Art and Life is a creative, fun-filled journey. Carole is one of the happiest people I know. And that, to me, is beautiful.
The show continues through March 4th at the Sebastopol Center for the Arts, 282 S High Street, Sebastopol, California.
