Is up for grabs from October 1 through October 27 at the gallery. One picked up a pencil and said, “This should be drawn and quartered.” Another grabbed a bewitched brush and said, “I’m going to paint this house, red…. or blue. Well, no, we need the whole spectrum for this.“ Another grabbed a slab of gingerbread and said, “I think my knife is sharp enough.” Another gathered ghastly, green fondant and silently fashioned it into phantasms.
