INSPIRATION :: Have you  been to the 1^st Thursday Art Walk in Seattle? Every time I think about going it’s the 2^nd Thursday of the month – meaning the 1^st has just passed and I have a whole month to wait. By then, I forget about it and the cycle of remembering it  a week after it happens repeats. BUT in December the stars aligned and I somehow had the urge to go to the Art Walk during the 1^st week of December – 2 days BEFORE it was happening.  OH and was it ever an evening of creative inspiration. Ready for the highlights:

THIS EXHIBITION – At first glance we were utterly unimpressed, but upon learning that the artist is autistic the art transformed and became instantly fascinating. It was magical being in a giant room with images all over the walls representing the way one human’s mind works. Plus, we got to meet the artist! (Photo #1)

The super cool moving piece pictured # 2 above. I should have taken a video so you could see just how cool it was. We were seriously mesmerized by it. Sadly, I can’t remember the artist’s name or find a worthy link to the gallery.

THIS APARTMENT – We didn’t go in it or anything(someday!), but we spotted it while walking and I was reminded of how amazing of a space it is. (Photo #3)

And we topped the evening off at THIS DARLING RESTAURANT.

First Thursday Art Walk I hope I can remember you more than once this year.
