Artwalk begins in Maz

On November 2, the first Friday Artwalk began here in Maz. The first Friday of each month through May, you can view the work of resident artists, between 4:00 and 8:00 pm. The self-guided/free walking tour takes you to their homes and/or studios in the Historic district. We met many interesting artists but will need to take this tour again to see all of them.

One artist we met is actually from Seattle. Among her work she had an interesting painting on display of a man whom I recognized. If any of you have ever walked through Pioneer Square in downtown Seattle you will recognize the man in this painting. He has been an icon of the square for many years. We also met this lady's son who is a local mural painter. Very interesting fellow, as many of the artsy folks in Maz are.

The artist studio is also her home. Very beautiful patio areas.
