2011 Art Project #8 SNART SnowArt Brick Wall

Date: February 2011

I could not have made this work in San Tan Valley, AZ! You need downright cold and snow for this kind of art. Shoveling the driveway for the umteenth time this month. I decided to write on the walls! It melted within hours. Glad we had the camera! It's helpful to have a professional photographer who knows Lightroom for post-processing. I actually did the post-processing, but he helped me along. Thanks Ron!

For the past couple years, dad has been having a bowling party for his birthday. Usually some of the grandkids come along. (He has 10 grandkids now). So, I figured I would do a bowling theme picture...then I did a second one. That's project #7...
