Coconut Grove Arts Festival

Marcy and I spent president's day over at Coconut Grove's annual art festival here in Miami... its their 45th year celebration. There's nothing like spending a sunny day observing art with your beautiful wife. We walked, talked and had a blast. It turns out that for the most part, Marcy and I totally disagree about art - but that's what makes us complement each other so well. So much so that we've come up with an art project called "Best of Both World's" - it's basically the best of Pop art mixed with the best of realism (classical drawing) or as I like to call it [unPop art] .. just kidding baby - realism is not unpopular, I know at least 4 people who like it. Anywho - check back soon for our first piece .... for now check out some of my favorite festival pieces.

very cool. I haven't been in years. during high school i actually got to "work" the festival - one of those running around with a staff shirt. add one more up for realism - though i like pop too. love it all i guess. glad you got some couple time in and enjoyed the nice day.
