Paintings by<br />
David Farnsworth<br />
at Streetbar<br />
Streetbar welcomes Artwall coordinator and Artist David<br />
Farnsworth’s new paintings on paper in a new show called ‘What<br />
I did on my Summer vacation’, <strong>October</strong> 9-Nov 5, <strong>20</strong>13. This series<br />
of original watercolors were painted during the summer of<br />
<strong>20</strong>13 . Water, pattern and figurative, these paintings are straight<br />
forward fun and whimsy. The paintings seek that ethereal joy,<br />
those moments of ecstatic pleasure and peace that seem to<br />
abandon us too soon in an ever search for meaning..<br />
