Her "Bearded Seal" got a lot of attention. She's improved her drawing skills so much since last spring.

In the "Farmers Market" section near the Grove. Important to know where to go in a beignet emergency.

At "In Wonderland," at LACMA. Great show. If it was ONLY the Remedios Varos and the Leonora Carringtons, I'd have been pleased to pay for the ticket; but there was SO much more, plenty that was new and surprising to me, and I left not wanting to see anymore art for a while, just trying to hold onto it all.

Many, many yellow cords strung in a framework, with children invited to run through, hide, etc. There are guards to make sure they aren't too rough with the cords (or each other), but otherwise, it's a big hit. Looks like giant spaghetti.
