At Semi Aquatic Gallery, Spencer Renolds was playing a Theremini while Michael Kew, read from his book, Rainbownesia.
"Author Michael Kew has evolved into a contemporary edge-walker, a visionary who has captured the starswept facets of Oceania in his latest offering, ‘Rainbownesia.' Kew incorporates ancient and current seascapes, landscapes, and dreamscapes, pulling the reader along in his timeless cosmic canoe. ‘Rainbownesia’ is an extraordinary effort and a voyage well-worth taking.”
“Rainbownesia” is available worldwide from Amazon.

In June the Art Walk was a reunion for many people who had not seen each other since the COVID pandemic began. In July even more joined in again. It was a party atmosphere - but with somber moments. Missing from Art Walk are Suzie Wright, co-owner of Wright's Custom Framing, and Buzz Stewart who has been a part of the local art community since before most of us can remember. Hope they were watching and know they are sorely missed and will not be forgotten.
