Sarah Dunn Art opened its doors for the second annual Bastille Day Celebration on July 12, 2008 with the “Painted Ladies” show. For only it’s second time around, the Downtown Covington art festival in July pulled a huge crowd of over 3,000 visitors.  Merchants opened their doors for merrymakers to dine, dance, and experience lots of local art.  Sarah Dunn Art hosted quite a spectacle for the new exhibit “Painted Ladies”  On display were a collection of new works by the artist, known for her evocative nudes and vibrant abstracts. Not to disappoint, there were in fact painted ladies- three models entertained the crowd painted head to toe in full body art.  One geisha, one Elizabethan queen, and one walking Sarah Dunn Art diva.  If you did have the good fortune of making it off the beaten path- you probably noticed the Sarah Dunn Art new Barbie installation that included a barrage of multicolored dolls strung wall to wall all in keeping with the theme of classic iconic beauty.  So next time you find yourself in downtown Covington make sure to walk the extra 20 feet down Boston St. and you will get to see BIG art in a small unexpected space.
