Step Out in February

Michael sent me a note for an upcoming exhibition: Carol Mott-Binkley of Curtis Park is making a name for herself in the art world through iPhone photography. Describing herself as “the Forrest Gump of iPhone photography” to the Sac Bee for having a “charmed hobby,” Carol’s work will be on display at East Sac’s Archival Gallery from Feb. 1-25 at 3223 Folsom Boulevard in East Sacramento (near N Street intersection - east of Alhambra Blvd.). Gallery is open Tuesday through Saturday, 11 am to 4 pm.

I think we can all agree about "having a charmed hobby." 


Another visit might be take you to Folsom's 48 Natoma Gallery (at 48 Natoma Street ;-] next to city hall) to see an eye-opening show featuring fabric art - not exactly quilts, not exactly ... what you expected. Stretch your imagination and hold on for a Pixeladies display and fiber sculpture by Susan Else. Gallery hours M-F 9 am to 4:30pm, Tu & Th 6-8 pm until April 6th. Carolyn and I checked it out - Wow! 

Visit pixeladies.com for a "telling stories in cloth" teaser. Digital images of analog art is OK, but if possible, you want to see this display with your own eyes. Explore their website to see details about printing on fabric and resources.
