Calligraphy Art Opening

Calligraphy Artist Sally Penley gives her welcome to everyone that came to her opening night for her art rotation at the Maple Valley Creative Arts Council on February 12th.




Members of the Tacoma Calligraphers guild were on hand to write beautiful bookmarks for everyone to take home.
We tasted five different Red Hot Latin Wines from Chile and Argentina..........Debbie wasn't content with her own tasting she had to steal from my glass too - Lush!!

Chef Matt Anderson was at the opening showing off his skills as a food artist. Starting with bowls of fresh fruits and chunks of cheese, Matt created wonderful appetizers for everyone to enjoy.

Yummy strawberries, blueberries and mixed cheeses..............mmmmmm




Simple but beautiful designs............



................and all edible into the bargain!


Check out Matt's website at http://www.chefmattanderson.com/ Matt offers private gourmet, artful dinners in your own home at very reasonable rates. If his fruit platters are anything to go by then I can hardly wait for a special occasion to hire him for!


Smile, you're on Candid Camera...............

It was a great evening and Sally's art is wonderful. Stop on by the Maple Valley Creative Arts Council sometime to check it out for yourself. http://www.maplevalleyarts.com/

Found your link off of facebook :)
So sad we were out of town for the opening night of this rotation. Looks like it was great fun.
Makes me excited though -- my rotation is next... which reminds me... I should be painting right this moment.
