Artsy

 Offspring #2 lives across the street from the Casket Arts Building. The artists had an open house this weekend which means parking is hard to come by. Being in town to watch pets while Offspring #2 was in California, I decided to spend the afternoon at the open house. I was directed to the lower level where they had a speakeasy. I didn't buy any drinks but I did enjoy people watching while others drank their drinks. I toured the artists on the first two floors. I think it's odd to walk into an artist's studio and look at their work while they are sitting there in a chair or standing behind a cash register. The prices were too high for my taste. Artists have a different way of looking at the world. Walking around I eavesdropped on some conversations between artists and customers or critics. Artists tend to speak in a language that I don't really understand. What I am trying to say is that I speak in more practical, down to earth terms. Artists seem to have their head in the clouds at least sometimes. People make the world go round. I'm glad we're not all alike.
