What is Art Under Wraps?
With over 60 pieces of art to be donated from many amazing artists, you won’t want to miss this exciting, fundraising event. You will get to see the art, but you won’t know the artist until after you purchase your favorite piece. All of the art will be displayed at The Showing and can be picked up at The Sale. Tickets will be $50 and the art will be sold on a First Come, First Serve basis, meaning that if you are first in line at The Sale you will have the first pick of all the Art available. So be sure and get to The Sale early!

*note: link is here on webpage (see link below) to go 'View the Art'...
I recognize 3 of the artist's names above & was guessing today which 3 pieces they
did on the art wall, among the 60 or is it 75 pieces (didn't count them, but was printed
in 2 different places these 2 different numbers-maybe some last min enteries...)
OK, so how many folks would 'not' guess this is Kelly Guidry's art...
I would so wait in a long line from an early hour in order to have a chance to get this tiny formed iconic (can we call it that yet, maybe signature--at least that...) flying heart, he's entitled: "pray & have faith"

The Reveal: Over 60 Art Pieces will be on display during ArtWalk, Saturday, December 10th from 6-8 PM at Americas Coffee House, 403-B S. Buchanan St., Lafayette, LA.
I should know this artist, but the name just won't jump out at me...
was having troubles today picking a Top Three, let alone a Top One...
off the Art Wall for Art Under Wraps at Americas Coffeehouse...
so I asked then snapped a few photos - sadly one didn't come out,
I think it was Denise Gallagher's illustrated bird/s piece...

The Steal:
Be first in line on December 17th at Americas Coffee House, sale begins at 10 AM and ends at 2 PM!
If this is a photograph & if the only photographer on the list of artist's is Gwen Aucoin--then I guess this could be her work...or the 'other' photo of the fountain at night stitched around in a tangle of blue threads...or she could surprise & have gone in a totally different direction (paint or beads or sculpture or metal work for all I know?! sneaky artists--but generous big hearted artists...)
