A dollar's worth of change tossed in a fiddle case this afternoon yielded a spring concert downtown. Also posted here is a series of portraits of Bela Bartok I found on-line. Funny how one thing can lead to another. I just wanted to find an image to accompany this little video and discovered these amazing prints created by Seattle artist Aqiva Kenneth Segan. These etchings remind me alot of Jim Dine's print work.
Gorgeous.
I'll have to thank the fiddler for connecting me to this artist!
