This year we had planned to participate in Santa Barbara's Imadonnari Street Painting Festival... BUT due to coronavirus and the 'stay-at-home' order, the festival has literally gone to the streets. Instead of being at the Santa Barbara Mission, this year artists were encouraged to chalk their driveways and the streets in their neighborhood before submitting their art online. I made the Pooh Bear chalk art and my wife did the other one. As we were chalking some people walk/rode by and cheered us on saying "yea! Imadonnari!" - It wasn't the same as being next to other artists all day creating but it was cool knowing other people were chalking up their neighborhoods.

The time has finally come! My whole life I have been self-taught when it comes to art. But now, I just started taking art classes! First up: Fundamentals of Drawing. For years I have resisted taking art classes because I wanted to just let my creativity lead the way, but now I am ready to learn! I want to gain foundational skills that will allow me to be more creative and express myself in even more ways. Santa Barbara City College offers drawing , painting, printmaking, and digital art classes - all of which I plan to take before starting my masters program :)
