Resurrection Art

Also, while we were at FlowFest, local artist Julia Schloss transformed a tree stump behind the Bath House into a beautiful butterfly. We took pictures which we'll post up as soon as we get them off the camera later but in the mean time check out her site here:

Small World

So, while doing a little Google searching to see how Emily's sites are doing in the rankings I tried a search for "artist Emily Young" and discovered there is a renowned British Sculptor by the same name who has done amazing work over the years that we didn't know about. She may have been the inspiration for a song written by Pink Floyd's Syd Barrett and has had her work displayed in public and private collections throughout the world.

Find out more about this amazing artist here:
