When I go walking, I also go "noticing". I like to see beauty that typically goes unseen. I like to look at the common in an uncommon way. It makes my walking more interesting. What did you notice today?
Make it a HAPPY day! My husband were in downtown Cleveland at a warehouse that sold used office furniture when we heard about a "Paper Conservatory" located "just around the corner". Since paper is my main medium, my interest was peaked! So after loading up our new/used filing cabinet, Jeff and I set out to find it. And the Morgan Art of Papermaking Conservatory and Educational Foundation was AMAZING! According to the website, "The Morgan Conservatory is the largest arts center in the United States dedicated to every facet of papermaking, book arts and letterpress printing and to cultivating the talents of established and emerging artists." Artists were hand-making paper...from various fibers. And large sheets of gorgeous paper were drying. And works of art, made from these amazing papers, were featured throughout the building. The type, letterpress, and book binding area was so awesome...My husband, whose family used to own a printing company, especially enjoyed this! Hidden over on E 47th Street, near Payne Avenue, the Morgan Conservatory is a gem! If you're ever over that way I recommend checking it out! Make it a HAPPY day!
It was a beautiful day...sunshiny and lovely. A perfect day for an Arts Fest! My hope was to have a HAPPY, colorful booth... that inspired positivity and goodness... and garnered a smile or two :) :).
I am jazzed to have a booth at the Berea Art Fest this year! The event is this Sunday, September 10, 2017 in downtown Berea, Ohio. I am booth #15 and will be right in front of Dick's Bakery (at the corner of Front and Church). Here are some of the art that I will have at the arts fest. For more information check out the Berea Arts Fest website at bereaartsfest.org/
I hope to see you there! Make it a Happy Day! |
