On the Art Front:  

MoNA Gallery on Central Avenue in Charlotte has both women in water and more abstract water paintings by the artist. It's a great little gallery and so down to earth. 

See new paintings by Jarvi at their upcoming ReCOLLections show.  (Although the show runs through end of June, any work purchased can be taken home at the end of the opening reception on May 4.  Instant gratification is awesome!)
