Day 4 - Piccolo Spoleto Outdoor Art Show

Thankfully we had no rain - what a beautiful Memorial Day - sitting in the park under a tree, listening to the concert, seeing old friends, making new ones and gratefully acknowledging those who made the ultimate sacrifice so that we and our children could truly live in the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Morning Demo - Carol Gardner - Mixed Media Collage

Here is Carol with her demonstration of collage mixed media, using acrylic paint full strength on the canvas, then creating an abstract design with handmade paper. She then paints a previously painted image in acrylic on gessoed watercolor paper and glues that on to her base. Fascinating - for all of us who love the freedom and fun of working in layers, collage is a great way to go!

Cas and Theresa Caserta

My very good friends, the Casertas from NC, came and spent most of the day with me and treated me to a delicious picnic lunch in the park. We keep in touch during the year but always meet up during Spoleto for a visit. I always look forward to connecting with them this time of the year and sharing what's happened between Spoletos. Another reason why today is special.

So, in closing tonight,

it's all for one and one for all...
