Flagstaff Open Studios is a wrap!

 What a great event we had this past weekend!  Our 26th annual Flagstaff Open Studios tour was a great success, with 8 artists at our location - my friend Cinde's lovely home!



Above is our group - Phil Goldblatt, Wesley Ayers, Sky Kremer, Mike Frankel and Leandra Pearl in the back row: next to Phil is yours truly, Ann Rice and my friend Cinde Dalhover.  

Here are some shots of the amazing art we had at the event:



Ann's beautiful clay creations - note:  the hanging on the white wall in back will soon grace Cinde's living room wall!



Some of Cinde's amazing bead creations - not shown here, she also creates wall art which will be back at Arts Connection in Flagstaff Mall later today.



Joey Rhue did a wonderful job catering our snacks!  He's an up and coming food artist, hoping to do some small event catering as a side job... delish!


Leandra with her amazing photography!  It's so clear, you feel like you're right there!



Mike Frankel with his recently published memoir of his photographic adventures and experiences in the 60's - he was at Woodstock, and also got to take photos of the Beatles' first tour in the USA!  So many great stories, and the photography will blow your mind!


I had a full rack of tie-dye along with a mess of rope bowls - the main bowl display is just to the right of the clothing rack.  Didn't bring home nearly as many as I brought, thanks to all who came and bought!


Phil Goldblatt's wonderful landscape photography - many from our area, but also some taken in Iceland and other locations.


Sky Kremer, with some of her whimsical artwork - she also creates magical sun catchers that bring rainbows to you when the sun hits them!  And yes, she is wearing one of my dresses - looked great on her!

Wesley is an accomplished painter and illustrator - great imagination and wonderful use of color to create very unique scenes!  He had a lovely array of fine art prints with him, along with some holographic stickers.

Thank you to all who came to our event, we loved having you and if you took away some of our art, we really appreciate it, and hope you enjoy what you purchased!  BTW, many of us are regular artists at Arts Connection in Flagstaff Mall, so if you're in the area I hope you'll stop in and see us and the other artists there!

What a great bunch of artists! And I love Sky's dress that you dyed. Looks like you all had a fun time.
