Been awhile since I posted hasn't it? Painting and potting for festivals leaves little time for other things I guess. A little about what I have gotten myself into.. . :) Since I missed out on the Wheeling Oglelbayfest (somehow the application didn't make it and I waited to long to call to find out about it). I decided to make some calls to other festival events to make up for the Wheeling one. The worst that could happen is that I would hear "Fill out an application for next year." The first festival I called was The Great Trail Festival after hearing that the festival was closed to venders this year so I asked to be on the mailing list for next year. Barb asked what my art consisted of and I gave her my website and next thing I know I was admitted! Seems they needed a potter.
First off I didn't realize that it was a two weekend deal so spent three weeks potting like crazy and finishing up paintings. The festival was right up there as one of the nicest festivals that I have
participated so far in my art journey. It was also the most tiring! But well worth the effort. Here are a few photos of the set-up and I was invited back next year, of course I said yes. ;)
Oh.. First dress up event too and that added to the excitement of the event. Where else can you display your work and still get to play in the mud?
