Macky Auditorium, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado

The last of the photos from my show, which closes to the public tomorrow. These are the photos of the opening reception. I put the camera away as soon as people started showing up so it’s pretty much just the food and a few of me.

I asked my wonderful friend Amy to join me at the opening and she was an huge help. Setting up the food table and getting things looking fabulous. She was also the official photographer - this is me - doing something. I can’t recall what - but it was entertaining.

The tulips on the table were my solution to the ‘um - what should we do with the flowers since I didn’t think to bring a vase’ problem. The artful placement was Amy’s doing.

The only picture I took of Amy - doing her helper duties. Thank you Amy - I couldn’t have pulled it off so effortlessly without you.

    Wish I could have been there! Such beautiful work. Love the flowers on the table - a very creative and clever “fix”!

    And it is always fun to see the brilliant artist behind the work! I almost always get some idea in my head of what I expect someone to look like. Of course, I’m usually way off base - I thought you would have short hair!!

    Thanks Natalya & Laure.

    Laure - I used to always have short hair - until 6 years ago. Now it alternates as I grow it long and donate it, chop it off then start over. I’m getting close to the chop it off part..

    I knew I liked you!! Just one more reason! Do you donate to Locks of Love? My husband does the same thing - he has the most beautiful hair. It is a very dark brown with shots of red and lots of curls! He is quite proud of donating it every other year and it is a wonderful cause.
