Making Art is Messy!

Daddy's Art Show at Corridor in Fresno

John had an art show in Fresno at Corridor 2122 in July. John got to see some very good friends that he hasn't seen in over 20 years! It was hot but Coco enjoyed the art!

Biker Chic!

We visited John's sister Susan and her husband Martin in Clovis one weekend. John had an art show in nearby Fresno. They were having an event at the local Harley Davidson dealership and Susan was sewing on patches for people. Martin just got a big, big bike as a gift from Susan! Coco hung out with Martin and watched some TV too. She can't wait to see them at Thanksgiving (and Christmas!)

Home Made Clay

Super easy to make and non-toxic. She kept asking me to make little animals. Now the clay is a hideous gray as all the colors have mixed together.

After Wine Tasting/Belated Father's Day Celebration

After wine tasting we all went back to Grandma and Grandpa's house for a BBQ. Grandpa got the first of many to come original art pieces by Coco. Coco loves going there because she gets to play the piano and eat ice cream!

Private Wine Tasting at Eric Kent Wines

So I am a little behind in updating....way back in July we had a private wine tasting with Eric Kent Wine Cellars. They put one of John's paintings on their 2007 Petite Syrah. All the wines were amazing and some were not even considered finished yet. The make the wines through a co-op in Santa Rosa. It was a really hot day and very cool inside. Is it me or does Coco look like Elton John in the shot with the sunglasses?
