Generally
a fun social finale night though sometimes as witnessed in previous years, is
mingled with some hissing and yes, even cat fights amongst friends and complete
strangers towards the end, as people desperately try to get a last bid on a
favoured artist's work or two, hoping to add to their art collection.
Rhythm and Rhyme is available in various print formats at my RedBubble Gallery.
