The Bedford Gallery at the Lesher Center for the Arts in downtown Walnut Creek is hosting a new exhibit titled The Jealous Curator from Blog, Book, to Gallery through February 1st. What I found interesting about this exhibit are the art stations where anyone (not only children) can make their own art. Check out the portraits posted in the photo below.
From the exhibit website:
The Bedford brings the blogosphere into the gallery with a show by the internationally renowned art blogger, The Jealous Curator. The exhibition is designed to enlighten, inspire, and chase away creative blocks that inhibit the artist in all of us. using The Jealous Curator’s newly released book, Creative Block: Advice and Projects from 50 Successful Artist, as a launch pad, the exhibition features art in a variety of media and “unblocking” art-making stations designed by artists.
