I knew rain was not in the forecast today so I
decided to go to the di Rosa. The di Rosa is a private museum located in the
rolling hills of Napa on 217 acres. The di Rosa has three separate galleries, a
sculpture park, a 35-acre lake, and a wildlife preserve. It had been a few
years since I had been there and because they have a collection of over 2,000
artworks primarily from Northern California artists, I knew I could view some
new contemporary artwork that I had never seen before. I booked a two hour tour
in advance and headed out the door to begin my adventure.

This exhibition of modern art has something for everyone

some thought. I say this because of the array of objects they brought together
to put in one exhibition.

The
reception for this exhibition was February 25, 2016 from 6-8 pm.
I
went to see this exhibition yesterday and found myself going back today (March
2, 2016) because I fell in love with the artworks. Never before had I ever seen
works of art created with sugar. I found the entire collection of skull works
breath taking. The oil paintings were equally impressive to look at and admire.
I
missed the reception for these northern Californian artists however, I was able
to locate website for both of them. Here are the links to learn more about
their work.
