| Oil portrait painted from life |
“If you could say it in words, there would be no reason to paint.” - Edward Hopper “We see ourselves when other people see us.” - Mickalene Thomas Sitting for a painted portrait involves taking time out of normal life, of sitting still, being looked at and listened to, listening and sharing. In the age of the instant digital, online selfie, this process contrasts with its slowness, intensity and physical presence. It is a reminder that we are not pixels, that personal relations are important and require time and presence. | 1 | 0 | 000300.0 | 300 | .001E7 | 100 | ||

| Backyard Paella |
This year we are mixing it up a bit to do paella the old-country way, outdoors over an open fire. This may involve building a firepit! (guests won't have to help build!). Our paella includes chorizo, lobster, and more, and is accompanied by Spanish wine, cheese, snacks, and desserts. We are happy to make dietary adjustments for folks and have done meat-free and fully vegetarian portions in the past. Buen provecho! | 12 | -4 | 000040.0 | 40 | .0004E7 | 40 | 6/2/18 7:00 PM | |
