Monkey's, Museums and Mist


Just back from a wonderful long weekend in Seattle with the Boise Art Museum Docents. 27 of us saw art everywhere...


 ... the space needle shrowded in mist as seen from the Olympic Sculpture Park.


...the homeless even had artful trees to hang out under.

 .
..street art of Bruce Lee in the International District.


...beautiful gardens and mosaic walls.

...in the swirl of the iron gate
 ...in front of whole foods we were greeted by the artist Aiko Takamori as he spoke about his sculptures.


...even the fruits and vegetables made beautiful pattern...


...as well as Nancy's sweater blending beautifully with the Aboriginal painting.


...Deborah Butterflied's horse sculpture greeted us as we arrived at Greg Kucera's Gallery tour.


...Seattle Art Museum tour...
