Seattle Symphony at Benaroya Hall

At the Seattle Art Museum

I went to the Seattle Art Museum today to see the Picasso exhibit. It was really wonderful. I traveled down from Bellingham with a Community Education group from Whatcom Community College. Trish Harding was one of the leaders and lots of us painters went along. It was so much fun. I couldn't take pictures of the Picasso exhibit but I could take pictures of other exhibits. I could also goof around with my camera and some of the modern art pieces.
Part of the amazing glass collection.
Beautiful work of the Art Nouveau period.
A wonderful collection of African masks and art including the tapestry below made from cans and bottle caps from Ghanna.
I had fun taking photos of reflections and abstracts in a room filled with contemporary art.

I was so lucky to see my son Jason on Mother's Day. At the last minute he got a business trip to Seattle. Arvin and I drove down Saturday morning and picked Jason up at his hotel and went to visit our good friends Chris and Jyl who live near Green Lake. We had a great afternoon and evening together and stayed there over night. We drove Jase to the airport on Sunday morning and went to the Tacoma Glass Museum before returning the Chris and Jyl's for dinner together. It was a perfect way to spend Mother's Day.
