Fun Art




These works of art are in this Fountain Hills area.

Fountain Hills


While Dan was golfing with friends, I got my exercise by walking around this lake. The fountain, which is the center of this AZ community, reaches a height of 330 feet and operates from 9 to 9 on the hour for about 10 minutes.

DeGrazia



One day, while Dan was chasing the white ball, I ventured out to see the DeGrazia Gallery in the Sun, a National Register of Historic Places in Tucson, AZ. DeGrazia built the gallery so his paintings "would feel good inside". There are more than 15,000 DeGrazia originals...oil paintings, watercolors, ceramics and sculptures. The pictures you see are murals in the Mission in the Sun, a sanctuary for visitors year-round.

Main Courtyard


This was a beautiful setting in the desert.
