 My painting, "Beijing Blue and Gold" on a weekend display during Fantactiy in Spoleto. In the photograph  the magnificent painting/wall installation by well-known artist, Sol Lewitt: The hotel is truly magnificent, the artwork placed in the most dramatic and exciting spaces. It was a privilege to be able to be part of it, shortly, but nonetheless gratifying.

Spoleto and Fantacity

                     ART BOX lots of fun in the center of Spoleto, Italy during Fantacity


                      Not only kids, but even adults did some building with lots and lots of boxes.
 Both mothers and fathers were happy to join in, making extremely tall towers out of boxes.


New games were invented constantly. 
Boxes were in order, and then crashed down to the ground only to be built up again.
