Color photo. A person with long, dark, curly hair, facing the camera. Their eyes are closed, and the skin of their face is completely covered in splotches of yellow, blue, green, and magenta Holi powder. Most of their hair is also covered, as is the front of their shirt. Next to them and beyond them are many other people, coated in colorful powder splotches.

I am happy to say that my submission to the Kenmore Art Show was accepted, and the photo here will be on display next to some other fantastic pieces!

You may recognize this image from a post I made earlier in the year.  When the call for art went out for the show, and I saw that the theme was “Joy”, this shot immediately came to mind.  Followed very closely by the other one in this post, for obvious reasons.  I was sorely tempted to submit them both.  😀

The show runs two weekends (August 15th – 17th, and August 22nd – 24th), at Kenmore City Hall.  Check it out!

Color photo. The word "Joy", in tall white letters, where the O is set up as an archway tall enough to walk through. The edges of the letters are lit up in white. This setup is intalled over a walkway of concrete tiles. In the background is a white gazebo covered in white string lights, and behind that are trees. Through a gap in the trees on the right there is golden sunlight.
