Oooh, for those who don't know about "Art Season", its a flurry of
get your stuff together- paintings, tables, chairs, cards, bags, prints, print this out, print that out, forget that, print some more out.
Then.... drive there (late as usual and like a bat out of hades) to set up and enjoy! (Hopefully, sell a little something to make up for the cost of the booth fee, with a prayer, maybe a profit?)
OK... take it down before it rains, gets cold, or you just fall down from hunger and exhaustion. Go home (fast) and unload--- EVERYWHERE.
Live in a house that looks like a tornado hit it.
Paint some more to make up for what you sold, what people want, inspiration you got from the last festival- if you have time between going to work, etc...
Then pick it all back up and do it again- given that you can find it again.
Aaaah, but, its been fun and so very informative.
Tina Bates and Denise Williams have been going with us and they've made it more fun than it ever was :) We get to paint (on kids or canvas) and throw ideas around. THIS IS THE DREAM! So, we're making "generic" Art with heart cards for all of us to hand out. More on that later. Creativity is a well that doesn't run out, Thank God...
We went to Mobile this Friday to an art walk, the weekend before that-- to a car show in the place of people at the women's center and before that, Arts Alive, I think. It's been a flurry of action, inspiration and interesting things, but whoo, its taking its toll for now ;)
There's an appointment tomorrow AM for painting sizes information, so its time for bed for me already. But, I'll be back blogging tomorrow, Good night :)
