I’d like to see Greenville, SC in 3D on Google Earth. How cool would that be? I’d love to see the bridge. How to put Greenville in 3D on Google Earth. Imagine what you could do from a tourist or business development perspective. Now that Google Earth is viewable within the browser, would be visitors could walk our streets in 3D.

Thursday June 21 at 6:30 Diane Edison will discuss her remarkable drawings—all portraits of men in her life: family, colleagues and fellow artists. In her large format drawings Edison poses her sitters frontally and examines their faces as if under a microscope. Edison’s technique is most unusual: she works on black paper using a white pencil and typically spends fifty hours on each one. Below, a sample of her work, a portrait of her brother Gary. Edison is a native of New Jersey and currently is the Associate Director of the Lamar Dodd School of Art at the University of Georgia. Free at the Greenville County Museum of Art
