Hazel Park Art Fair

this dinosaur was right behind our tent and got the most attention of anything at the show I think

I'm recovering from my first art fair. It was quite the whirlwind weekend, oversleeping, a 4 hour rain shower and many ants. While it was not my most profitable weekend ever, the amount I gained in learning from sharing the booth was priceless. Monique of 3 Ring Traveling Apothicary was an amazing show mentor, helping me with set up and display space and just being a good role model. Also, because of her AMAZING products, we had the best smelling tent there by far, which was very important after 2 85+ degree days. I am proud of myself for trying something new, but thinking next time I will go for an indoor show with air conditioning! 

Studio time!

A few in progress pieces from this week at the studio!

Quick and silly

Trying to come up with some quick and silly things to make for my table in a few weeks. Cat toys anyone?

Everyone loves tiny skulls, right? 

The devil is on the details

So Halloween coming up has a lot of possible patterns on my mind. Today I worked on a new one to get it drafted to contemplate. It didn't come together quite as well as the skull, but the red I had on hand seemed sorta perfect for him.
