Saturday evening I went to the opening of the California Fibers exhibit at Oceanside Museum of Art. There are some beautiful pieces on the walls, but there was also a mob of people, so I only have these five examples.
The paper clips are what hold the ends of the cord to the overhead "base".
I expected they would tinkle like wind chimes, but the figures are soft - no tinkling.
Some of the walls were painted black which gives this piece a sort of glow.
Kathy's work is so different - unique.
I messed up the signs on these next two so have typed in the text.

These are three artists' husbands waiting during an opening. I met the fellow on the left, nice guy with a good sense of humor.
