Brought together by the word “blue” and arranged alphabetically, I went to see a friend of mine. . . presents a wide range of musical styles as well as performers of varying levels of celebrity, from legendary icons to obscure virtuosos.

Participants are invited to recreate and modify the iconographic album covers selected from Bertoli’s piece using gesso & ink transfer techniques, acrylic paint, and other mediums of your choice. Demos & instructions on the ink transferring process will be provided.
