On July 7 I participated in the H. E. B. grocery store Art in the Cart event
in Granbury from 12-4 and began the collage process on this large high
heel. I have finished it this week in my studio but I got a lot of paper
glued in the 4 hours and enjoyed visiting with new friends. It helped
that my cell phone was left in the car so no email checking and the
snacks were too far away so basically I sat and glued. I think this will
be one of my 3 entries into the Arlington Museum of Art show HeART Beat
show with 12 artists and opens August 13 to September 21. Because it
was at H. E. B. I had to add a little grocery ad flyer info on the side
of the painting. (The title comes from some text glued on the collage).

Where's Art?
On
Saturday during the Art in the Cart event at the H E B store in
Granbury TX I was knuckle deep in glue and torn paper and had other
collages out on the table and in a small cart nearby, when a cute older
gentleman came up to the table and said "Where's Art?" I thought he was
being a "smarty pants" with some good Texas joshing and said right
back.. well, look around there is art all in this area, collage, a glass
artist, and a sculptor, and this is art right here under your nose. He
took off his sunglasses, looked at me and said "No, I'm looking for
Art..your better half." I still didn't know if this was a joke or good
Texas humor or if he really thought I had a better half. I said,
"Mister, I think you've got your women mixed up. The only Art in my life
is this collage". I thought this explanation had him satisfied as he
walked away. Later on, he stopped by again and dropped his business card
on the table, "Give this to Art and tell him I said hello." Me giving
up.... "I certainly will. He will be so sorry he missed you."
