Ravenswood Art Walk 2009

This past weekend, we packaged up carefully all of my fine art botanic prints…. and Eric designed beautifully our display at Ravenswood Art Walk 2009. This art exhibit had over 2,000 attendees, 184 artists and 43 venues…phew! It was blocks and blocks of artistic talent all out for all to see. There were dancers, painters, sculptors, photographers, graphic artists, chefs, etc etc! We had a great time meeting and greeting the neighborhood and new friends. Thank to all who came out to support what is so close to my heart.

This group of dancers was Jeezebelly. They were awesome!

This was my favorite art from “The Blago Project” by Bianca McGraw made of cardboard and synthetic hair. Gross but awesome.

    This is all spectacular – it takes my breath away and makes me tear up a little. You (and Eric) are so incredibly talented! The display is so so perfect…..and so you!
    On a personal note…we miss you two. Love you bunches and cannot wait to see you…any plans to head south??? I hear Chicago could get snow soon :)
