Memories from 2011 Art Shows:
|
Walk in the Woods
|
I exhibited at
the 4th annual St. Germain Walk In The Woods art fair on June 11, 2011. We had perfect weather!
The art fair was held in the park ajoining the St. Germain Chamber of Commerce.
This was a judged and juried fine arts show featuring a select group of local and national artists, plus wine &
cheese tasting and live music by Bret & Frisk.
It was a successful sales day for me with four of my recent
creations finding new homes. I plan to attend this art fair again in 2012!

I had a booth at the 39th annual ARTARAMA art fair on Saturday, July 16,
2011. As in years past, this art fair was held at Riverside Park in Eagle River.
This is a large juried art fair with 125 top quality exhibitors. It's was a great way to spend a day in

I plan to return to this art fair
in 2012. Hope to see you there!

|
| I had success with booth visitors who wanted to try their hand at detailing a feather. |

|
| Children are always eager to try something new. I enjoy teaching my technique for "pushing feathers" |

Memories from 2010 Art Shows:
|
|
|
Anne from Cincinnati holding one of my oak carvings
at the 2010 Summerfair Cincinnati art show. She was brave enough to try carving some feathers with me at the 3 day show. Anne named
the owl White Rain. A lucky carving going to the home of such a sweet young lady. Thank you Anne for being a fan of my work!
My fondest memories of the 2010 summer art fair season has to be the people I met. Wonderful memories! The Summerfair
Cincinnati art show was held June 4th-6th. It was my first time at this major art fair.
