It was an absolutely lovely afternoon - and I know it will be a fond memory. There is an old blue refurbished piano sitting beside the coffee shop and all afternoon, pianists of every shape and size and age played beautiful music. We had only one version of chopsticks, but most of the pieces played were a range from modern to classical. Such a treat!
For me, just getting there was victory enough as I had to think carefully about how to pack and transport my stool, my paints, some paintings to display and figure out how to create a table. It proved easier than I anticipated, even though there are some things to improve upon for next week's journey to Art Under the Arbor at Park and Tilford Gardens. My goal was to finish one small painting of an Iris that I could take with me to next weekend's show and that pretty much filled up my afternoon.
It was also a very nice recognition to have someone like my small painting of a Dogwood flower. She took it off with her and I think it will be a gift for someone. That made the afternoon just about perfect!
