        I went to school with this artist. And I've worked with the folks at this community center. It is a great place to see an art show and the art will be colorful and professional.

        I really like the characters in Christine Benjamin's artworks. I can use my imagination to make a story out of her pictures. Isn't that what art is all about? Everybody interprets a picture differently. Christine's art can't be ignored because it is so bright. Collapse
