The Countdown

So many things to do and here I am writing on my blog. The Fairy Fest is quickly approaching and I have much to do to be ready. I should be in the studio cleaning and setting up for the big event. Oh well, I will be rested. Tuesday will be a better day for cleaning,etc. I would prefer to get to the heart of art. Art from the heart,that is what I love. I've gathered small canvasses to make more affordable art for the less than happy economy. I think perhaps a new series would be appropriate for small canvasses. Something new and fresh would be great. Any suggestions? I would love some input from you. Have a great artsy day. God Bless. Betty K

Update, Fairy Fest, bionic knee

Well, it is almost fairy fest time (next weekend,4/25 11am-6pm, 4/26 12am-4pm). I'll be face painting. There will be lots to see and do: a fairy door scavenger hunt, fairy houses on display, books and author on hand to autograph, the Rose Queen will have tea parties on Sat, fairy dancers on Sun. It will be lots of fun. Last year we had over 200 wanabe fairies running around in winged costumes. I wonder what kind of turnout we'll have this year? I hope my husband with the new bionic knee will be able to come and help out or at least sit in may studio and keep an eye on things while I'm busy painting faces. I need to get back to work, I've been staying home with the recovering knee. I've only been able to go to work for a few hours this week. Hopefully next week will be better. Till next time, God Bless.

It's been a busy month

What a month! I've been so busy with commissions and a husband with a new knee. Now is gear up for fairy fest at Art 634. It will be a big event with lots of winged fairies running around looking for fairy doors. There seems to be garden fairies in my studio. They have been digging in my basket garden. Tunneling is more like it. What a mess. I think they are setting up house in the tunnel. Off for now. God bless. Betty Kay
