One of the best things about writing for Lookiloos is coming across jaw dropping pieces of art. A beautiful landscape can transform a dark room and an interesting piece of modern art can inspire equally provocative dinner conversations. But where does a regular person buy art in the Silicon Valley?
The Downtown Campbell ArtWalk is a casual, “tour-on-your-own” style art walk. This is a great opportunity to visit with the artists and view their exciting new works in a friendly, casual atmosphere.
One could stroll along Campbell Avenue have a drink at the neighborhood Irish pub Katie Bloom’s, have dinner at the always satisfying Twist Bistro or have something decadent at Satura Cakes. Then on to some Art shopping or browsing. Pick up a map and brochure at any of the participating galleries, including Debbie Marie Arambula and Sonya Paz.
This Friday the Pacific Art Collective will be conducting a Live Community Canvas! Bring a friend or the family and help local artists paint a mural! PAC will be located on the corner of Third Street and East Campbell Avenue (by Sonoma Chicken Coop!).
Other artists will exhibiting their work include: Juror2 – Jenifer Kirsch exhibiting at Gelato Classico, Raku You – Keith Bunnell at The Olive Bar, Brooke Howie Fine Art exhibiting at Vintage & Vogue, Photojournalist Matt B. Simon at Lorraine Lawson Fine Arts and Abstract figurative artist Andre Trigueiro at Trailsloggers.
Best of all anyone can go home with new found art to decorate their home – from Fine art to Pop Art Magnets to artfully decorate wine decanters. It is sure to be a fun way to spend a Friday night.

You rock!
It may sound funny for a weekly newspaper to be involved with an “Art Walk” but we want to help showcase budding artists. Fraser Langford, who “throws pots” is going to be at the Campbell Express office, 334 E. Campbell Avenue this evening from 6-9. Come and see his work!
what a great idea, I’d love to go on an artwalk…
