Art Show

What fun! The Price Tower is having a Kids Art Show. I love to see all the imaginative things that kids come up with.
                                              
 This show had plenty of masks. Of course that made me very happy.                  And it might even inspire me to make some collage masks on paper.

Checotah Papillion from Jane Phillips Elementary

What a great totem pole. Artist Checotah next to her creation (the mask with the tail, just above her head).

Sign Saturday

I'm always on the lookout for a hand crafted sign; the more artistic the better.

Well this one is hand lettered in chalk & in a prominent place in Ree Drummond's Mercantile in Pawhuska, Oklahoma. A friend & I went for breakfast, but we forgot it was spring break so we still ended up waiting in line 45 min.

Ceramics fit into many areas of our lives:

utilitarian

decorative

religious

I've enjoyed having this communion set on my bookcase for years, but it's never been used for it's designed purpose.
