The San Francisco/Silicon Valley Art Fair was here this past weekend and it was wonderful to walk through the booths looking at spectacular artworks.

Here I am visiting STAR – Hunters Point Shipyard non-profit for the arts, that had a booth at the fair advertising our upcoming Open Studio this coming weekend.  It felt awesome being one of the 30 artist who represented Hunters Point Shipyard Artists!
