Metro Art Highlights: Walter Askin’s “Pasadena” (2003), Through the Eyes of Artists.
Grab a horn and let’s hear you “heigh-ho!” as you join the piping procession parading through Pasadena. These wholesome and high-spirited figures boast a buoyant bacchanal that will march right into your heart and dismantle any melancholy that might mire you woe by woe by woe.
Askin asserts, “…the real joy as an artist is to create work filled with delight, work that is more calm, more serene, more alive, more playful, more energized, more focused, more directed and more life filled for the time that we’re here.”
This particular artwork was awarded a Silver Medal from the Los Angeles Society of Illustrators.
Pick up the pace, peppy people. And follow the trail of confetti and carefree carousing.
Destination: Diligent fiddledeedee dilly-dallying.
