ArtWalk 2018

"Sway" - 17-1/2 x 39" - Sheila Mahanke Barnes ©2018
ArtWalk officially opens tomorrow with receptions, music, and ART at many locations throughout downtown Sandpoint. My work is at a new location, The Cedar Street Bridge, and I have yet to stop by to see how everything looks, just taking it on faith I guess. It is a more awkward location in terms of accessibility since it does not have its own parking lot like the bank where I'd displayed in previous years, and of course, there is street work going on just a block away making it challenging for even the locals to navigate, but there is hope that this will not deter the loyal crowds who always come out for this event.


I don't think I've shown you Sway in its finished state. I think of it as my showcase piece of the four that will be on display. You've seen the others: Leaf Cluster VIII, Float, and Fracture. If you live in the area, I hope you will stop by my location and say hello!

Thanks Mary! I found out that this is the piece they chose to put at another location where they were showcasing one artwork of each artist exhibiting at the Cedar Street Bridge. I peeked in the window after the receptions were over and it looks to be hung in a good spot there. My other three smaller ones looked wonderful grouped in a corner in the office (photos to come), a space shared by a sculptor, a nature photographer and the quilts of one of my art group members. We all got so many heartfelt responses to our work. Always gratifying to hear such high praise!
