Local Art Show :

Willow Glen Home Tour 2013 :

For the past four years, I've shown my artwork in the
Willow Glen Home Tour.
Each year I bring a little bit more to this show.


  
 Showing off one of my new hand-painted Tote Bags!

I've been working on other pieces of
 "functional and wearable art".
So I was excited to sell my hand-painted canvas tote bags. 
I painted my designs on EcoBags.


This great event is held on a weekend each year in May. 
You never know what kind of weather you'll get...
Saturday was way too hot and a bit humid, then Sunday was 
a complete contrast: we had wind and 
you needed a sweater since it cooled off quite a bit! 
 

My small works on wood
 - abstract botanical collection - 
hanging with succulents and stones!

Here is a shelf display panel that my husband 
built for me!
It works great for my 
small works on wood.

These lovely young ladies are my daughters!  
They are all ready to sell raffle tickets for the event.

There were about a dozen different 
local vendors and artists
selling that weekend, in the backyard of
 one the homes from the tour.
I made some new friends that weekend and 
a few others stopped by as well. 
Looking forward to next years!

The Willow Glen Home Tour is a
 wonderful charity event for the 
San Jose Day Nursery, here in San  Jose.


Well, back to my studio - yeah!!

My art to yours,
Yvette
