a work in progress

May in Eureka Springs is so green and so luscious it feels like I’m at a bird symphony holding a bouquet of tropical flowers. Every sense is bringing information about the power of the creative or life force. This weekend in Eureka Springs has been jam packed with art events. Art that makes you laugh and grin until your cheeks hurt and you feel warm all over certainly makes you feel very alive. My happy mind is juggling thoughts about the creative force. For example, I have been noticing that artists, who are constantly producing and offering expressions of their connection to the flow of life, seem much less likely to have children… Lots of ways to branch out from these thoughts and perhaps I will some other time. Tonight, I’d like to skip that monologue, hop over the long and varied list of enchanting and exciting creations that filled my weekend and land in the center ring to share a few photos of the highlight of this weekend. The Aerial Angels, led by director and playwright Allison Williams (better known as Isabella) are flexible in mind as well as body. The fact that they play with fire and do splits in the sky turns out to be just a little bonus. The substance of the show, lies in the ability of Isabella and the angels to turn notions of life as we know it upside down.

Art baby, ART
