Maker's Fair and Highland Jazz Fest

The last two weekends have been wonderful!  Shreveport's art community has really come out to show their support.  Thank you to everyone who made it!

Firstly, the Texas Avenue Maker's Fair was great!  The weather may have been uncooperative, but the public really proved that this is an event they want to be at.  Even with the chilly temperatures and the drizzly, sometimes rainy, mess, the crowd was pretty steady.
  Xeno stayed curled up in his bed for most of the show.  I'm not sure he really approved of the weather.

The next weekend was the Highland Jazz & Blues Festival.  The weather was much better, even if it was a little humid.  After lunch, things really got rollin' and I didn't get much of a break!  Xeno was a much happier camper and made quite a few doggie friends at this event.  People were out in droves with their whole families, pets included.

Next up is SRAC's December installment of UnScene December 14th!  Hope to see you all there!

The Pop-Up Market

I had so much fun at Fort Worth's Pop-Up Market yesterday.  It was definitely a scorcher, so the crown was kind of thin, but I met a bunch of new artists and made a few sales.

I got a lot of new ideas, as well.  I hope to have many more items in my inventory when I return in August.  I will be there for the monthly show from August through October. 

Major kudos to the organizers of this new market!  They are awesome folks and very, very organized.  Set-up was super easy and the layout was very nice!  I can't wait to see this market take off and know that I was a part of the fist wave!!


Xeno was trying to escape the heat underneath my table!  He was a big hit at the show, amazing everyone with his ability to chill and check out the crowd.  He made a couple of new furry friends, as well as some of the human variety.  I will be getting him some sort of cool mat before the next summer show.  I'll also be looking for some ways to keep myself cool, too!!

The Texas Ave. Maker's Fair was amazing!  I did better than I ever would have expected!  Thank you to everyone who came out and made this event possible.  And thank you again to those who honored me by purchasing one of my works.  You all put smiles on my face!

I will have to work extra-hard to replace the inventory I sold before the next show in June.

I will be taking a short break before my wedding at the end of May, but you can expect me back in June.

My next show will be the Pop-Up Market on June 15 in Fort Worth, Texas!  This is a new monthly arts market that began last month.  I can't wait to check it out and become a part of it.  Check them out on Facebook and LIKE their page!  I know they would appreciate it.

Had a great time at the SHOUT! Outreach Maker's Fair at Centenary College today!  The organizer did a wonderful job putting together a brand new event that was competing with many other local events.  I met lots of new folks today and now I'm even more excited about the Texas Avenue Maker's Fair next weekend!

It was absolutely beautiful day to spend outside.  My lovely fiance helped with the set-up and take-down and my adorable booth buddy, Xeno, made lots of furry friends!

Now I have to get ready for next weekend!  Watch for updates!
