Hello Art Patrons,
ART ON THE PORCH SATURDAY
Piedmont Art Walk
May 7, 12-5 pm.
137 Caperton Ave, Piedmont CA
The 3rd annual Piedmont ART WALK is up next Saturday, the day before Mother’s Day. We have over 40 artists selling art on their porches; net proceeds support art in schools. Scan the site and map on bit.ly/PiedmontArtWalk2022.
My botanical special for Mom includes a small framed botanical print of your choice, a signed art card, and a botanical gift wrap for $45. Or maybe Mom’s a Bug Hotel type of girl? Hanging garden art shelters native pollinators right in your own backyard. Check them out in my gallery www.BonniesBotanicalArt.com. We’re still waiting to hear from the city about masking but will keep the porch uncrowded regardless.
I have a variation on the theme. I transformed a fallen Valley Oak limb into a wood sculptured nest. It’s my first woodworking attempt and, if nothing else, you should come see the nest. Not cheap however because I really love the nest.
I’ve currently completed a Valley Oak limb with oak galls.
Through a newfound website remove.bg.com I can print the white background in black. Like it better? Check out the original (NFS yet), buy a signed and numbered Giclee print, or a card. Lots of choices along with botanical books, tea towels, bags, and aprons.
This is a pen and ink Japanese Cedar bonsai. I took an all-day outdoor class and we were not allowed to bring pencils which, if you think about it, means no erasing. Omg! But the mistakes just turn into more branches and I got to watercolor the gray pot later. I’m hooked. Come see it Saturday.
Welcome back, everyone. The Covid canceled exhibits are still on hold. I will surely LYK.
Yours,
Bonnie Bonner
