July is the month for 4th of July celebrations, picnics in the park, summer reading, summer day trips, summer clothing sales, and the July 13th Colfax Artwalk.
I will be participating in this artwalk next Friday, July 13th from 3-8 p.m. at the Bear River Trading Co. (http://www.bearrivertradingco.com/) in Colfax, CA. Bear River Trading Co. is a women's western wear clothing store that sells name brands at a great price (see their website for details). If you happen to want to get away to a historic little town located in the Sierras (not too far from Auburn) with a lot of railroad and goldmining history (http://www.ci.colfax.ca.us/), join me in celebrating summer! There will be food to sample and I will have my latest paintings there. There will be other artists to meet at shops and restaurants throughout historic Colfax that day 3-8 p.m., also, who have created great artwork to view and be inspired. (facebook.com/colfaxartwalk). If you cannot make it up on the 13th, all artwork will be on display for the month of July in this wonderful historic town. There are some great restaurants and a restored train depot (Amtrak still has a stop here). There is much to explore in scenery and history in the Colfax region. Wishing you a little sunshine in your summer.
