SWIM FREE 2024

Sandy Fest Seven, a day to honor my Mom's life on the anniversary of her death was an excellent day. Creating art. Time together. Pizza. A Coca-Cola toast. A couple of readings from The Little Book of Zen Healing. Open and honest conversations. A mini-film festival of home movies featuring my Mom. May she continue to rest in the embrace of God.

The art this year was a series of "best of" projects. We revisited things we enjoyed in the past.



Our first stop was at the Bremerton Art Walls to get another small "Swim Free" octopus painted onto the retaining wall, amongst all of the graffiti art.



Then it was off to The Father's house to create art with members of my family. I worked on Coke bottles for the second year in a row. Other than the one octopus bottle, I simply painted patterns on bottles. It was fantastic therapy. It was meditative and healing.
