The Chalk Art Festival, I Madonnari, at the Santa Barbara Mission plaza is in full swing this morning. We got there early to get some good photos, and we were surprised that so many people were already there. The food concessions were getting ready for the expected crowds of people which this event draws from Southern and Central California. There is a lot of work in progress, and the above was completed, and made an impression. The artist is a philosopher, declaring that rubber duckies bring humor and peace, wherever they go! Roberta Nielsen, the artist of the work above, continues with her Norman Rockwell copies of the Saturday Evening Post. We are looking forwrd to the finished version, tomorrow.

We decided to go early to I Madonnari Festival in Santa Barbara at the Mission (Street Chalk Artists event). Apparently other folks had the same idea. We loved so many, and between us we must have taken over 100 shots. Ron also took videos to practice what we learned about iMovie at the Apple One on One last week. This chalk painting is one of our favorites. It is a replica of an early 19th century American artist. We will be featuring more as the week goes on. Happy Memorial Day, Cheers, Ron & Alexandra

The crowds kept pourring in on this last day of the exhibit of the I Madonnari, (Italian for Street Artists). The majority of the works were completed. In some instances the perfectionists were still shading and adding definition to their work. The following is a tour of the great variety of artistry and inspiration that was part of the creative enegy at the Santa Barbara Mission today. Tthe Ty Warner Sea Center is one of our favorites. We loved the perspective and the array of jellyfish.
