phenomenal: July fest part one
I am flippin' worn out after 3 days of exhibiting pots and hanging out with friends and the music and mirth....I'll give you the rest of the story Tuesday.
Highlight number one: the woman who came back after a couple of hours and said "I always buy one thing at this fair and this year you are IT"--my sales were, as they usually are for this thing, awesome and
Highlight number two: we bought 2 tiny paintings, 4 x 4 and 4 x 5 inches, from a painter named John Carroll. My wife is not often with me at fairs and I rarely buy anything, but these really caught our eye, such little sweeties! And a great price and artist....funny, you go to the grocery store or the auto mechanic and drop a ton of money in a second and art is so dang AFFORDABLE in comparison!

Your booth looks great, I’m glad it was a good show for you.
The paintings are very nice. I love getting art from fellow festival artists. It’s always a happy reminder of a good show as well as makes my home more beautiful.
Congrats on a great show! Those paintings sure are sweet.
Being in a place where extraversion rules, an introvert gets tired even when enjoying conversation (says me post convention). The booth looks great and I am glad people responded so well to your work!
Glad to hear you had a good show...and those are precious paintings! Colors remind me of someone with yellow in his booth, oh my, who could it be?
Truly you look like an artist on the photo
You had a great display. Not surprising that you sold.
Love those acquisitions !
So nice that your hard weekend was worthwhile; love your display. The fruit art is right up my alley; LOVE!!!
What a pear!
And a nice complement, too.
Glad you had a successful fair. LOVE the tiny pear painting.
