It was fun! That was the bottom line, for me, of the SUMMER ART SALON weekend. Details on the show, and the participating artists and our theme, are elsewhere on this website, so I won’t repeat them here. But … fun! It was fun to help set up all the work – the paintings, photographs, prints, glass pieces and sculptures – and admire the imagination and the technical prowess that each piece embodied. It was fun to distribute the 100+ pieces around Kathy’s house in a balanced, eye-pleasing, “come look at me” manner. It was fun to greet visitors as they arrived and guide them around. It was fun to listen to questions and answers. It was fun to sit quietly with my fellow artists and talk about some pertinent art issues. And it was more than fun to reflect on what an artistically rich and diverse area we live in and create in. The Summer Art Salon was but a sampling of what was on offer in the Bay Area that weekend – any weekend, actually, any day – to look at, admire, question and be inspired by. |
