We were lucky that the tornado warnings and tremendous rains came on Friday and not today! What we had today was 65 (mostly sunny) and windy.
I think my favorite new find at the art fair is Peggy Furlin (Lake Mills, WI and Palmetto, FL) . Her watercolors on watercolor canvas are exquisite!!!
She is, according to her blog, on a LONG roll of art fairs. I can't believe the huge number of fairs she has been to.
Looking at her website is a delight.
I am hoping she teaches but at this point I really don't see how she could because she's on the road all the time!!! But I love her palette, her wonderful compositions, and her use of canvas!!
More to follow on this!!!
I am imagining that the fair brought as many people as usual (or more). The streets were crowded.
Looks like a wonderful turnout! And, sitting here freezing with snow all around - it also looks W A R M !!!
ReplyDeleteIt was a pleasant kind of a "sweatshirt" day or light jacket day. When the sun was out it was warm. Of course, for us, 65 is not warm! But I have to say that this is a good "art fair" temperature as I have been to ones when it is so hot that you just melt away and that's no good either!!! It seemed as though art was being purchased. I always hope that it makes $ for the artist involved!!! I did connect with Peggy Furlin by email that evening and I am hopeful I will get to one of her workshops soon. I hear the midwest is due for another big snowfall tomorrow!!! Will you get it?
