During the month of August, music can be heard in the streets of my town...the City of Everett sponsors 10 pianos that sit outside, waiting for anyone passing by to tickle the ivories. Each of the pianos are decorated by local artists with imaginative themes and motifs...
My artist friend, Jody Carlson Cain, is one of the featured artists this year...her piano, The Scenic Route, resides outside of the Everett Public Library during this musical month.
Its a lively collage of old maps, decorative stencils, touches of metallic finish and handwritten words...
If you're in the area, I urge you to stop by and view this masterpiece in person...and you can also see Jody's work at the upcoming Fresh Paint Art Festival...where she, me and 73 other artists will be showing their artistic creations August 18-19 at the Everett Marina...
There's a full spectrum of art on display this summer...come and check it out!
