JoJo's energy, in the photo above, has the energy I need.

As mentioned in Sunday's Blog #2719, Brandon needed

access to under the desk cords, as well as the desktop, screens 

andlaptop.But now I am looking at ...

I have a mess, stacks, and stacks, tiring to even look at.

Maybe I'll do an after if and when an after happens?

 

I much preferred the view out my studio window.

A smile for Wednesday ...

Another great, cloudless, sunny Saturday in SoCal 
& we are off to the Brewery!

 The creation of the Brewery Arts Complex began in 1982

at the old site of the Pabst Blue Ribbon Brewery.  

With the passing of the Artist-In-Residence code, 

artists rent live/work space in industrially zoned buildings. 
Only rented to artists & is the "world's largest art complex." 
These are true lofts, not apartments, in industrial buildings

that are a part of  a unique & creative community.

 

The Brewery ArtWalk is a bi-annual open studio weekend. 

 With over 100 participating resident/artists, 

to see new works, discover favorites, speak with the artists 

& purchase artwork directly from the artists' studios.
ArtWalks takes place in the Spring and Fall, 11:00 am – 6:00 pm

Admission & parking are free & dine at the on-site restaurant.

5 hours & lots of stairs, walking & exploring ...

Thanks so much for stopping by.

A smile for Sunday ...

This is a photo from a bulletin board in one of today's studios.

It made me smile, so I got permission to take a pictures of it ...

I thought you might come up with a caption?

Day 1005: How to spend a perfect Sunday?

collage & old drawing postcard

I am on a roll!

Saturday was a perfect day ...

and Sunday was perfect too.

Valerie drive us, on our way to ...

Perched on top of a hill with an amazing view of the Pacific,

San Pedro, the Port of Los Angeles,

and Catalina Island ...

Angels Gate Park is a gem to be enjoyed, and we did.

Angels Gate Cultural Center is a group of re-purposed barracks, 

made into various sized artist studios.

Painting, photography, ceramics, printmaking and more.

and in one of the buildings ...

the amazing building-sized set up of n-gauge railways
set up by the Angles Gate High Railers &

Belmont Shore Model Railroad Club .

We worked so hard, we got hungry.

I don't know why I always forget to shoot the food?
Val had the veggie melt & I had the spicy pork melt.

It was delicious and magically disappeared.

Many different groups performed throughout the event.

We turned right instead of left, going to the Korean Friendship Bell.

A wonderful spot, kite flying, & families enjoying the day.

Up close, the detail is incredible.

And the view from the bell ...

then time to start for Orange County,
follow that Ferrari!
 

Easier Sunday traffic.

Another perfect day.

A smile for Monday ...
