AFTER OPEN HOUSE

Art Interpreted in Flowers, Oil Painting by Joan Nies

Yesterday was a sunny and fun day for the yearly Open House. The courtyard was covered with booths displaying paintings of all ilks, jewelry, photographs, organic baskets, custom clothing, doo-dads, and much more.

Live music drifted through the air, lines of hungry visitors waited for a scoop of ice cream, or a spicy tamale, while others enjoyed bidding on village artwork from the Silent Auction, or floral arrangements from The Art In Bloom...

Until Later, take care....Love, Bella!

SQUIRREL GARDEN (Studio 26)

BEAUTIFUL SUNFLOWERS ARE IN BLOOM

Summer is here with its long warm days and mother earth celebrating. Erika, my rag doll cat companion, and I were lying underneath the sunflowers. Emily, the squirrel, and her friends must have planted this beautiful sunflower garden.....we enjoy the beauty now, and as it grows older, the blossoms will produce sunflower seeds for Emily and her friends to eat......the garden is in the alcove where studios 24, 25, 26 & 27 are located....drop by and enjoy the glass art, photographs, jewelry, baskets, and paintings in the alcove! In studio 26, there are doggy milkbones for my friends, and near the sunflower garden, fresh water for thirsty wagging tails. The village is open 7 days a week from 11am to 4 pm! Hope to see you! Love, Bella

If your in Balboa Park today, stop by our village and see "Squirrel Garden" yep that's right "Squirrel Garden" SUNFLOWERS planted and well kept by our 4 entertaining Golden Red Tails squirrels. They are very vocal by chatters, growls and screeches. They love to chase each other up and down their handmade ladder built by artist. Find them at Studios 24-27.

Enjoy the sunflowers while they last!

LOVE BELLA! 

Have a safe 4th of July.
