When she was a child herself, Melissa noticed everything and wanted to know how everything worked. Since I knew how nothing worked, she tired of me easily.

Red Piano Too Art Gallery Hosts 18^th Annual Summer Show

The Red Piano Too Art Gallery is hosting its 18^th Annual Summer Show on Saturday, August 7from 10 am - 5 pm. According to gallery owner Mary Inabinett Mack, �Each year around this time we have to stop procrastinating and concretely settle on a theme for our annual August Summer Show. For a long time now, I have been obsessing about art depicting women and water. At home, I have decorated a whole room around this concept, and for the past couple of years I have been working on a series of paintings that I call Women and Water. After much deliberation we finally sort of backed into this year�s theme. I thought it would be interesting to see how other artists treat the theme: Women and Water.�
