Artists Beyond Obvious share a love of exploring new and different ways to express ourselves through our art, each in our own individual way. We meet weekly for group critique sessions, sharing a lively art discussion over coffee! Our first group exhibit at the Main Street Cafe in Los Altos in 2006 was a big success, and further exhibits are planned (see below).
