Mattress Factory Artsts - WOW

We heard about the first holiday tour at Atlanta's Mattress Factory studios so David and I strolled over. Wow and wow again. You can make all these pictures bigger if you want: click on a picture and select "All sizes." The Mattress Factory is one block west of Oakland Cometary on Martin Luther King.

Todd Alexander: Didn't get a picture of Todd but here is part of his studio:
