More Hip Than Hippie - Art to Die For
We love art â?? not that either one of us can paint, draw or heaven forbid, sculpt. But, we love to have fun anyway. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder correct? Plus, we have kids who are quite the artists and who doesnâ??t love their childâ??s art plastered all over the refrigerator and surrounding walls? We were astonished to find that many art supplies contain chemicals that can be harmful to those who use them. This show offers insight into alternatives to create beautiful and eco-friendly art.
