“Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale.”
― Lauren DeStefano, Wither
Tonight there's a reception for artist Carla Hamilton's new show Snapshots @ the Red Mug Coffeehouse from 5 to 7 p.m. "Snapshots" is s show about emotions. Each piece is a portrait of the life span of an emotion, emotions felt in the now and past. Primarily mixed media, the works are layered with the residual effects of emotions, coloring the future. I've enjoyed following her career since her return from 18 years in Germany.
