So it’s that time of year again!   Art shows, art shows, everywhere!

This will be my first year participating in the Meridian Summer Arts Festival and if you can’t tell…..I am EXCITED!!!!  🙂

I am forgoing the Throwback Thursday post in lieu of all the crazy-madness that takes place the week before an art show (all-nighters and all-dayers of painting, painting, and more painting. And properly cleaning and touching up all displays, artwork, and anything else that will be in public view. And then CAREFULLY packing all paintings, art supplies, tables, chairs, tablecloths, stationary, easels, lighting, displays, etc. And also making tons of lists, then making more lists to keep track of those lists, and double checking all lists to make sure you don’t forget anything. And then finally getting to play trunk Tetris while I try to squeeze everything into the car so nothing is damaged in transport, and hoping that by some small miracle it all fits…..sheesh….I’m tired just typing about it! 😉  ) Anyhow, I am posting about it now since you probably wont hear from me for a few days while I buckle down and get ready for the show. But I will be sure to take tons of pictures and post them when I get back! So keep an eye out for that!

I am also working hard to create some painted feather key chains, but there is lots more to do in the mean time. I guess at the very least I’ll have something to do in  my down time at the art show. 😉

And for anyone wondering how you can purchase any of my paintings or earrings outside of the art show, please keep an eye out at my online Etsy store: The Feather Artist: Hand-painted Feather Earrings and Fine Feather Art.  After this weekend I will be adding all of my inventory! (Please note I have removed all items due to the art show this weekend – but it will be up and running again shortly)  I’ll be adding lots of new earrings as well as all of my larger painted feathers. And if you are not familiar with Etsy, it is similar to Ebay, minus the “bidding.” Everything has a set price.  And Paypal or credit card, or Etsy gift card is used for all transactions. Similar to Ebay, to make a purchase you must sign up for an Etsy account – it is quick and very easy – if you would like to do that now, click here to sign up.

You can also contact me directly if you have any questions or comments about pricing or anything else regarding my artwork.

Thanks! And check back soon for pictures from the art show!
