THREE RIVERS ARTS FEST

I suppose it's a bit late to be posting about this as this is the morning of the last day but I was accepted and have been showing at this years Three Rivers Arts Festival in downtown Pittsburgh. It's been interesting to say the least! The response to my work has been quite polar in that people either seem to love it or hate it. The facial expressions I've encountered have been a true pleasure to watch parade in front of my booth though that's for sure.

There are a few things I'll likely change or alter if and when I do the show again next year or do other shows in the future. I've spoken with several artists, namely Tim Hooper who is a very cool guy, who've been extremely helpful and encouraging to a Rookie like me. I think if I can manage to keep my steam up and continue cranking out pieces, I should be able to get a few gallery gigs in the near future.

I'd like to thank those of you who came and bought pieces from me this week, I'll be in touch with you all with special offers and updates as they come down the pike. Also, thanks to everyone who has helped me out over the last month or so and extended themselves a bit further than normal in an effort to get me here. Really appreciate it.

Pictures forthcoming.
