My photo
I'm an artist living in San Francisco, on a wooded hillside overlooking the Farallon Islands. Redtail hawks soar overhead and sometimes perch outside the studio window, and raccoons, possums and skunks are nocturnal visitors. And this is in the middle of the city!

Altered Book Auction

Saturday was the opening reception of the Third Annual Altered Book Show and Auction at Marin Museum of Contemporary Art, which benefits the museum, and was conceived and organized (to a fare-thee-well) by Eleanor Murray. The reception was preceded by a talk by Donna Seager, who juried the exhibit of over 140 works, and gave several honorable mentions and three awards, of which my little book collage above received Second Place.

Some Open Studios

Today I visited several Open Studios, among them the San Francisco Art Institute Graduate Center Open Studio, where my daughter had some pretty impressive work on display. Have a look, at alisonwoods.artspan.com.
