An eclectic post
A sneak peek from the catalog of the show. Tonight I just had the old iPhone with me and didn’t capture the artwork. Took a few shots of the artist and a few family members- I didn’t ask if it would be okay to blog them so if you are in the Pittsburgh Area you have until July 15th to experience these stunning paintings in person. 
Lots happening on Penn Avenue as it was a first Friday and it’s called Unblurred
-art galleries open and the street abuzz with activity.
We were walking to the Irma Freeman Center for the Imagination where my friend Joan Brindle was having an art opening along with 3 other artists Roshida Abira Ali, Jim Brindle and Irma Freeman. The show will be open until July 15th
Friendship Bagel complete with an Ode to a Spring Meadow Poem on the sidewalk in Garfield on Penn Avenue.
And when we crossed the street to ensure our friend V got in her car, I captured one of the new Artistic Tree Grates that have been installed recently as part of the Penn Avenue Reconstruction
How about this artistic tree grate?
Such beautiful images!
Thanks Cindy.
Can’t resist an eclectic post, or a friendship bagel. Happy Saturday, Ruth! 🙂 🙂
Thanks Jo. Happy Saturday to you, too.
Vibrant scenes! Happy pictures!
Love the new tree grates.
The friendship bagel looks really yummy and full of flowers! Awesome!
The only flowers I’ve eaten are zucchini blossoms. Thank you Ilex.
Oh yes! I tempura those.
There are many flowers that are edible and bring a nice blend of colors and tastes to the plate. 😊
I ate white clover blossoms for the first time last night at a wedding
This is a great post Ruth E – lots to see and lots to imagine.
I love the whole idea of a friendship bagel and a poem! And beautiful paintings.
Fun post- most enjoyable.
Love it and I applaude the street gate! Why not go the extra step to something we all have to see everyday and make it pretty! Think that’s a wonderful idea! Like that friendship bagel too!
That beagle looks really beautiful Ruth.
I’d enjoy the friendship bagel 🙂 Beautiful photos, Ruth. 🙂
The bagel is beautiful! But I’m not sure I would enjoy eating it… The tree grates are terrific! So clever.
Those tree grates were unexpected.
