Excitement just ahead on October 9th with OSA's reception kick off at the museum, leading to our OSA tour weekend! Tickets and maps are available then as well. We artists are cleaning our studios, hanging art, pricing it and weighing how to best show our latest, our favorites, old and new. In July, the East End and upper Ojai gathered at my house to talk about advertising, signage, how to do our own PR--and get a photo of our group. The tour stretches from Oak View, Miramonte, Meiner's Oaks and downtown to the East End, so maps become key and come with your ticket. It's complex but we are a cheerful group, even when we are working hard on committees and in our studios. Hope to see you there!

Always great fun! The reception is August 21 at the Ojai Valley Museum from 5 to 7pm, and the show is up until October 12. I'll be there, pouring drinks and enjoying the food when I'm not at the bar. The exhibit "As We See It" is an amazing one and worth spending time looking at each and the comments next to each art piece.

I’m in two of the events! Always fun when a family brings children with them. Many just look but some ask questions, often funny, but sweet to see their curiosity and ask them questions about their favorite. Here’s a photograph from last October’s OSA Tour. Many of the photos from then are in blancheSylvia’s gallery on Flowers, across from the festival, but many new ones are in my studio. Signs are out and maps are online so enjoy a day of art in the mountains and valleys of Ojai. Free and welcoming...
