On August 15th, the North Country Arts Council put on the 1st Annual Summer Art Festival and it was a true success! We had many artists show up to sell their wares, dancers, musical preformers and entertainers...we also had really great weather. A big thanks to Tracy R., Tracy G., Ingrid C. for withstanding the brutal heat to and sit on the asphalt to do some street painting. To see pictures from the Summer Festival, you can visit us on our Facebook page.
I decided to paint this hand with butterfly...all of the spaces were 6 x 6'.
August is almost over (I can't believe it) and school is only days away, not just for me, but for my boys and my husband as well...we're all going to be hitting the books! I'm taking a figure drawing class and a figure modeling class. I've never worked with clay before so it should be pretty interesting.
I'll also be getting ready to teach a pastel workshop at the YMCA starting September 9th. Which is also the due date for the Bra-vo exhibition at the Handweaving Museum in Clayton, NY. They're asking people to decorate bras, which will be auctioned off, to support breast cancer awareness. The Remington Arts Festival is also coming up in September, which I still need to register for, it's a one day art show & sale in Canton, NY and is held outside in the center of town.
In October, I'll be plein air painting in Old Forge and will then donate the painting for the auction...so a lot will be going on these next couple of months.
