Reta Lindstrom has put together a fantastic line-up of local artists who've been kind enough to invite us into their studios & places of business so we can hear their own stories of what they've accomplished, what keeps them inspired, and view the environment of their creativity. Our first stop will be a 9am visit to Dots 'N Doodles; we'll get background info on many of the materials that make art possible, some history & perspective, then move on to local art groups & individual studios on both sides of the river. Painting, photography, fiber arts, and glass work will be some of the areas featured. More expanded information will be posted soon.
