The mild weather and variety of art drew crowds up, down, and around California Avenue Southwest for Thursday night's (Sept.10) Art Walk.
In addition to painting, sculpture, and jewelry adorning area shops, C & P Coffee held a wine tasting and some establishments featured live music.
"If you go really fast it comes in one day, or it can take two to three days," said Romy Ehrsam, 8, a Schmitz Park student, of her dozen or so images displayed at Shoofly Pie. "I draw the picture first, then trace over it with tracing paper, and rub on it," explained Ehrsam to an interested art patron of the first steps of her complicated process. One image called "Sun Dance" had a "sold" sticker on it by 9:00 p.m.. She made that piece way back when she was 6. Click on photo for slide show.
