Friends of Jim the Wonder Dog in Marshall, Missouri, put out a call last month for 4″ x 4″ pencil drawings of Jim. Their plan is to create a wall hanging with the submitted drawings.
I was intrigued and couldn’t resist, so, of course I was compelled to create an entry.
Four inches by four inches is not very big so I suspect they are planning on a lot of submissions. It sounds like an interesting idea, and I am looking forward to seeing the finished product.
The Art Hunters have been called in to find, capture and return the escaped artworks back to the Springfield Art Museum. It seems as though one piece of artwork comes to life each week and “leaves.”
I am a member of the reserves, helping to locate the missing art each week. It is a lot of fun…not what I expected when I first started! We have to figure out clues which lead us to various places around town to gather up the needed phrase to relay to the two head Art Hunters. It’s like a mystery, solving puzzles, similar to geocaching,….just plain fun.
I certainly hope they do it again next summer. : )
Sweetart at 2203 South 39th Street is a great place to stop and spend awhile. It is a cafe, bakeshop, and art studio. cbabibayoc is the artist whose work is displayed on the walls. And 8×10 prints of his work are also for sale. Once discovered, you will want to go back! (www.cbabibayoc.com) (www.sweetartstl.com)
Vegan food and great art.
I really like this painting in the cafe.
Paintings to enjoy while eating.
