ARTIST with a YOWZA SPIRIT

Art is Long; Life is Short...
and so, in the true Yowza Spirit of this blog, I will invite
the people I meet, the places I go, the adventures I experience,
and the AHA! moments life brings to be my siren for my
ART and my WRITING.
Here's to the ride.

Festival of Art...Lewiston, NY

This past weekend offered up blue skies...the perfect setting for the annual 
Art Festival held in the village of Lewiston, NY.  
Despite the high humidity (what's up with THAT here in Western NY?), 
the event fed the soul and the spirit as people strolled up and down Center Street.
There were musicians--
this young man's rendition of "Hallelujah" stopped festival-goers in their tracks...
and this young violinist (in a trio of entertainers) mesmerized...

and the acapella singing of 
Jymn the Singing Mime filled the air with style and grace
(note the play guitar he strummed during a few of his songs :) )...
and there was the happy music provided by 
the trio known as the Gringo Mariachis
 (the guy on the left with the accordian is my new "fav" LeeRon--of LeeRon Zydeco)...
and, last but not least, 
the artistic "voices" of today's youth 
"spoke" through their Chalk Art creations.
 
 Indeed, in Lewiston, NY, 
on a beautiful, fine August Saturday (2010)...
we were once again reminded that LIFE IS GOOD
