One rainy weekend!

Last weekend as many know, was the Spring Spectacular Arts/Crafts fair in Portland, TN..
It rained all day Saturday!
It was also very cold!
I did have a blast however! I met a lot of very great people, I had a lesson in what to do and what not to do. I had a great deal of positive feedback. And, I came home with many good idea’s for my next fair in June.
So, even though I had 2 jackets on, I went squish in the mud every time I left the building. The cafeteria ran out of Hot Chocolate real early and none of the stalls in the ladies restroom had locks on the doors, I had a very good time.
Amazing how much one can cram into a Mini Cooper. Of course you can’t see out the back, but hey….. I still had my side view mirrors.

Today is the Day!
I looked up the Bottom View Farm in Portland, TN and it is beautiful.
This is going to be a great experience! I am so excited for the opportunity for expansion and growth, for me as a artist, but also for me as a grown up who is willing to throw caution to the wind and go out there into the world to say, ” I am good enough to do this, and I’m willing to take the chance!”
So much to do before I leave, I must go and prepare…..
It is raining! I hope it stops before 4pm, but if not I have an indoor booth. At least getting wet will be minimal!
Ps…. ” Lord, it is raining hard! Whew!

My first arts and crafts fair, I’m just beside myself with excitement, hope, and anxiousness about next weekend.
I will of course send you stories from beginning to end, with as many photo’s as I can remember to take. I have a friend who will be going along to help, (and make sure someone is always at the booth)
I wanted to show some of the items that I plan to have in my booth for sale. Of course, I will have 3 drawings, 2 small paintings, and a entire alphabet of painted paper mache letters. I also have a few aprons, a number of purses and bags. I also have an original drawing I did of New Orleans. Professionally matted and framed. 
I apologize for the condition of the photo’s of the “L” and the “O”. Way too dark!
Along with an alphabet of letters, I also have drawings….

I also have sewn crafts such as aprons and purses.
my 5 x 7 paintings….
You are probably saying it’s just T.M.I…… there is more, but I will leave something for those that actually come.
You must understand how absolutely excited I am!
I’ve never been a sports fan before now……
A Commissioned work……
I had someone ask me if I ever did sports team logo’s on letters before. Of course I said I would be glad to. And, I am so glad I did!
I did this one in a J because its the first letter of the first name of the man whose wife commissioned it. Actually, it wasn’t an epiphany, I was asked if I ever did this sort of thing, and I said I would. Voila! I’m pumped about this! I’m thinking of doing a T for the Tennessee Titans, and a P for the Nashville Predators, a T for the University of Tennessee, a V for Vanderbilt….. a G for UGA, another G for the Gainesville Red Elephants, have you got any other suggestions?
