Well, we did it again! After a frantic day of working (for some, Russell and Barb had already completed their piece) we planted the flag on Mount Lefroy. We had tons of visitors over the week; I counted about 150 names in the guest book!
Here are some impressions of our last day:
Marion finally started to warm to Mount Lefroy!
Enid was in her element all the time!
Barb with her woven garment + scarf
The last stitches for Dianne before the 3 PM ring of the bell!
Russell with "Lawren's painting", times two
I’ve even made a video of his photographic installation!
Poor Terry felt still very sick and has a lot of yarn to be knitted before completion.
Kurt: Installing the installation
JoAnne's finished CD cabinet
Leo's 3-D piece in wood
My encaustic piece
And then we had a baby Quail visiting the Quail's Nest!
't was hard to fit all artists in the picture! Kurt's missing here...
After the photo shoot, a toast and some well-deserved goodies we all went our separate ways. Watch for the RipOff display at the Fall Art Show in Oliver, Oct. 2 and 3. And next year at Handworks Gallery and Leir House Penticton.
That was it for this year! Will we do it again? Of course we will!!

What a wonderful display of art again this year. Wish that I had got down to visit earlier in the week but was good to see the artwork grouped together as well. Love your piece Thea. Wonder what you will get up to next year?
