Year Of The Rabbit
February 2011
Chinese New Year is February 3, 2011 on our western calendars… ushering in the “Year Of The Rabbit”. So fluff up your tail, wear some big floppy ears and get a carrot cake.
This month’s drawing salutes a new tradition in Oriental – the running of the Dragon on Chinese New Year. That’s Thursday Feb 3 4pm on Hodges Street. Artist Laura Turgeon’s drawing hand looked ahead and imagined the Dragon Run on this coming Year Of The Rabbit….
| Laura Turgeon and her husband Gil Fontes live in Oriental. When they are not out looking at boats Laura and Gil are often seen with drawing instruments or paint brushes in hand. More of Laura's work can be found at her site LauraTurgeon.com. |
