SAND CITY is large in tax base, small in population. This postage stamp piece of prime real estate sits between the cities of Seaside and Monterey California. Its residential section has always been minute, compared to its big box stores and local craftsmen. Over time it has also attracted local artists. For a couple of weeks each year, muralists ascend upon these sandy shores and add to this city's urban landscape. For one weekend a year, one of Monterey County's most beloved festivals takes over the core of Sand City for its annual West End Celebration. I decided to celebrate these events,…mehr

SAND CITY is large in tax base, small in population. This postage stamp piece of prime real estate sits between the cities of Seaside and Monterey California. Its residential section has always been minute, compared to its big box stores and local craftsmen. Over time it has also attracted local artists. For a couple of weeks each year, muralists ascend upon these sandy shores and add to this city's urban landscape. For one weekend a year, one of Monterey County's most beloved festivals takes over the core of Sand City for its annual West End Celebration. I decided to celebrate these events, the artists, artisans, food vendors, musicians, non-profits and all those who joined in the adventure, within this book, a book you can make your own... DEAMER SKETCHBOOKS: In case you haven't heard, coloring books for all ages are becoming quite a passion. Perhaps, for many, a little coloring can still feed a passion for getting into a book, as well as allowing the satisfaction of finishing something. A few sketches are accompanied with a micro-story, to add context. Deamer Sketchbooks are meant to inspire you. Each sketch is partnered with a blank page-you can add notes, comments, poems, words of a song, or your own artistic doodles-innovation inspired by creative human activity. The idea is that this is a book that you can make your own. These are travel companions, whether you take it along, or you allow it to take you... In addition to my SKETCHBOOK SERIES, I've created a CULINARY ADVENTURE SERIES - TRAVEL FICTION. Omar T and his family are in a different city for each novel. The travel fiction aspect is enhanced with descriptions of actual sites, restaurants, bookstores, galleries and shops-including sketches, favorite lists and recipes. Diversity in race, religion, culture, language and sexual orientation not only exists within Omar's family, it is celebrated in these tales. Each Omar T book is independent, you do not need to read them in the order of their publication. Though, as the collection grows, there are occasional references to other books in the series. My life within the hospitality world, including owning my second restaurant in Salinas CA for twenty years inspired these foodie adventures, starting with OMAR T in MONTEREY CALIFORNIA. Come join Omar as he travels the world...
Autorenporträt
Deamer is a retired chef/restaurateur who travels the world with his sketchbook and laptop. For each city he visits he creates a Sketchbook (A book to make your own) and a novel with his recurring chef character, Omar T. These are culinary adventure stories he labels "Travel Fiction." Chef Deamer was born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah. He lived in Switzerland and the Washington D.C. area before settling in Monterey County California in the early 1980's. "I had the incredible luxury of having a world class artist for a mother. Gradually some of her skills rubbed off on me." Deamer maintains a home in the birth city of John Steinbeck, Salinas California, the former location of his dinner only restaurant, Pajaro Street Grill. "I have a list of fifty locations where I hope to write Omar adventures... Come join the journey!" http://artbz.bz "Everyday is a great day to read a book or color one!!!"
