My submission for Illustration Friday's "canned" is a layered dimensional painting of a little town called Red Bluff, CA. It reminds me of childhood and small town life. Notice there are canned cherries in the window :)
This is a poster from my husband John Hartmann's concert hall "The Kaleidoscope" and you can see the Jefferson Airplane,Grateful Dead and Canned Heat played 3 consecutive nights in 1967. John's friend Gary Essert disovered them playing in a fraternity house where they were a huge hit. So John and his partner Skip Taylor signed the band on the UCLA campus. Skip still manages the band to this very day. Bob "The Bear" Hite lived in Topanga as well as "The Blind Owl" aka Allan Wilson. They played at the old Corral in Topanga.

One year on from the introduction of the UK government’s 24 hour licensing laws, the official report finds a “mixed picture” of their impact. I asked Martin and Moira Plant, of the Alcohol and Health Research Unit at the University of West of England, for their reaction to the report as they wrote our book Binge Britain: Alcohol and the National Response. This is their short, hard-hitting reply. What do you make of liberalizing alcohol laws? Let us know in the comments below.

What an incredible post. I love the way you pulled all the "cans" together, and we see yet another glimpse into Val's interesting life.
Fun stuff!!
ValGal, I will can this post so I can open it again. Hehe. I cannot see the movie. Anyhow you and your husband are such innovators, recognizing talent early on. I love cherries especially on top of cool whip over something sweet.
The sad music is still on.
Very sweet image! :)
Oh my gosh! I am so glad I tried again. I could not open it before (did not read instructions well. What a touching movie. Incredible the effecys of words and how they are said or used.
what a beautiful little town...I always know you'll have such a treat to share.
I love this little town you've illustrated...all the little details and the kitty looking out the window. BEAUTIFUL!
I just adore your dimensional paintings! I study them with awe. You have so many great postings for the theme this week!
very fun post. I bet it took cans of paint to paint those painted ladies (victorian)? Got a chuckle out of your canned heat album. I have a canned wheat in my album collection (the guess who) - which I recently pulled out of the dark recesses of my closet. As I recall the guess who pulled this album together in response to the canned heat music. I am going to take this as a sign to listen to canned wheat this weekend
