This was one of those diverse and interesting days that makes me feel extra fortuntate.After coffee al fresco, Sharon and I headed to the newly launched Lake Tahoe Community College’s Annual Student Art Exhibition. This very fun exhibit features work from across the Art Department. It highlights student achievement in drawing, painting, ceramics, photography, and mixed media. The opening reception and awards ceremony celebrate technical accomplishment, creative thought, and the diverse artistic voices of the LTCC community. All amazing!
I am very partial to ceramics. Jessica Aster's Cheeseburger Bird made me smile. For those who don't live in the land of vocal chickadees, right now the quiet of the day is interrupted by their mating song, "š¯… Cheeeeeeeese burgerš¯… ". So clever.The realism of Exodus by Penney Garrett was exceptional.There was something very poignant about No Screens by Paul Mueller. The hammer was so realistic. Such talent.I enjoyed Agnes Knight's Deep Brew Dive.I was drawn to 49 Pistachios in a Serving by Kelly Fisher & Wendy Cook not only because it was clever but also for its coincidence. Just yesterday, Steve and I were discussing the health benefits of this particular nut and learned that a serving size is indeed 49 pistachios. Wild.Interestingly, Andrew Budd's Black Knight won best in the show. What a truly unique exhibition.Lunch was spent in the company of some wonderful women. Mary Jo (to my right) returned to Tahoe to meet up with old friends. I am so happy I was included in this gathering.We ended the day at Lake Tahoe Yoga for our very first visit. I was drawn to a session called Karmic Ruts: Identifying Postural Habit.Jenay spent 1.5 hours teaching us how by changing the ways we use our bodies we can improve more than our physical well-being. The class focused on:
-Getting to know how we move
-Identifying postural habits that are creating dis-ease
-Adjusting the way in which we use our bodies
-Learning to stop moving in ways that create pain
These were all things I really needed to know. It was an incredible session that both Steve and I thoroughly enjoyed and we felt wonderful afterward. Now we just have to put into practice all we learned. This was truly the best end to our day!
