Plaques Sticks and more at Jenny's Crescendoh space






SO MUCH FUN!
In a beautiful airy space at the Santora Arts Building in Santa Ana we convened to write beautiful brush letters on signs and branches. Thank you so much to Jenny Doh for hosting this laid back art making day. Look at this 'Listen' by Jenny herself! Check out more pictures on my flickr site HERE!
