I was asked to participate in the Michigan City LakeSide Arts Fair this year through Southern Shores ARt Gallery in Michigan City. This was something I'd looked at since I had requests to participate in the past but after looking into I determined that I would have to invest in at least $2000.00 to do it correctly. Not something I wanted to do. So when SSA asked and said they had the equipment I felt it was a great opportunity for me to tip my feet in the water!
I loved seeing everyone and talking to people at the fair. But....NO SALES! I would have somewhat expected that as my art is not 100% mainstream. But...it was a very good experience...and now I know.
In getting ready for the fair I pulled out old studies I'd done and tried to rework them...Here's one that I have never been crazy about, but started it because I'd never done anything like it. The building is a building on the grounds of the Piti Palace in Florence....I added the girl from an old masters painting...
