End of Art Fair Season…. ;-(

Drying out the tent and unloading the van today. Storing it all away for next year. It's slow going 'cuz I caught a cold over the weekend at Funky Ferndale and it's kicking my @$$… :-(  I have no scheduled shows between now and March so I plan on getting a lot of things caught  up around the house and studio. I have a lot of stock so that means I can do some experimenting in the studio that I've been meaning to do. I'll keep you posted. I may be offering some sale items in the next couple of months just trying to reduce my stock and make some room in the studio. Also I have a new web page in the works I will let you know when that is ready. The old website will have a link to it as well.
Many thanks to all of you who came out to see me this art fair season and to the new folks who liked my page it was great to meet you!
Keep your eyes on this space…..you never know  what might happen…. ;-D

The "Horse of Art"

Yesterday I had the pleasure of doing a demonstration for The Shelby Township Fine Art Society. I had a wonderful time and they seemed to also. It was the first time I had done a live demo and I was a bit nervous. I managed to overcome that with a bit of humor (who knew?). It was a very interesting evening. I had to explain my process which took some thinking on my part, because the process is something I usually just let happen and don't pay attention to. Sounds weird I know. Oh there are things I'm concious of but for the most part I let the piece tell me where it wants to go and that requires letting go and giving the "horse of art" it's head so it can run. It's hard to explain. But I guess I managed to articulate that crazy process to the Fine Art Society….either that or they didn't want to question the crazy artist lady any further lest she lose it right there…..LOL

My art on your walls!

Well not YOUR walls….YET. 

But someone sent me a picture and a movie of my art on their walls. I really LOVE to see this stuff. The best part about creating art is knowing that it brightens someone else's world! Thanks to Karen LeButte for letting me post these…she's the best! She says she loves going in her sewing room and seeing my artwork. 

Thanks Karen!

This piece is an original that Karen reframed. Very nice job!

Thanks so much for sharing Karen. 

You did a great job framing these prints. 

Any one else want to show me what you did with the art you purchased from me? Drop me a line at: 

artdream1213@gmail.com 

and send me some pictures and I'll post them. 

Can't wait to see them!

Arts & Apples!

Good news people I've got accepted into Art & Apples for this Sept! More info to follow :)

Leon & Lulu's….it's all over except for the restocking!

Well my friends Leon & Lulu's was a lot of fun. Met some really nice people. Two of my framed original pieces found new homes along with prints and cards and even a bookmark (still gotta figure out how to make bookmarks for the kindle..LOL) So it was a successful little venture. I think I'll do it again if they'll have me :) And with the 4 originals I sold last weekend at the Royal Oak Artists Market I've got a lot of work to do….that's like a whole wall of my art fair booth gone! Yikes! I better get to work!
