Artseed Painting

Saturday, February 21, 2009

Syd's weekly art session took place in front of an old hospital in the Presidio which is slated for demolition.




Here are Syd and ArtSeed's Director, Josepha setting up.



Josepha instructs Syd on blocking the building. Syd will be painting over a previous painting.



The blocking was created in about 15 minutes by both Syd and Josepha. Syd will continue to fill in details at home using photos taken.

We went to our first Chinese New Year Parade evening celebration in San Francisco's downtown. Lots of dragons to touch for luck!

Sparky

Keith and Syd did some dogsitting for our neighbor during their winter school break.

According to Syd, Sparky is quite active!

After the experience, Keith is not so keen on following the dog around with a plastic baggie and picking up its droppings.
