Hi Lynn,
I've been reading with interest the thread on art fairs. My first and only experience was here in Madison at the Art Fair on the Square. Hard to get into, but I made it on my first try. No tent, no display stuff, (I brought a bed)! I was showing quilts, and I only lasted the first day. A vicious storm pulled through early AM of the second day, tornado watch and all that. Those who were prepared survived the storm and went on to have a good day. I just packed it up. This was way back in 91, even without the storm it was murder on me.
Thanks for the words of encouragement. I will try the reception thing again, I was told that I was the only serious artist there. I just didn't belong in such a political venue, (this is Madison), and the artists working on their "personal" demons! Why would anyone buy someone else's art therapy?
It was interesting to see what people liked, I've decided to paint things that I love while waiting for paint to dry etc. Here's one that I could have sold many prints of.
