ONE SHOW ONLY!!

Hello everyone. Well, isn't it the way? Plans change, things fall through, so I am doing only ONE SHOW this fall and that will be at the Folk Art Fest on Sept. 25, 26, 27 in St. Charles at the Kane County Fairgrounds in the gorgeous new facility! But, THAT'S NOT ALL! The Folk Art Fest has gone down to a ONCE A YEAR SHOW, which means you won't see me back for another year after this....unless I get into another spring show (and I'll tell you if I do). The business of doing shows all comes down to the customers (I am speaking for all of us artists out there). When the customer stops demading a hand made original piece of work, that's when the artists stop producing. In that lies the greatest tragedy of all, in which the creative minds out there have no reason to create. We create for YOU, our customers, our public, and for the sheer joy it brings us. Without our customers we have no reason to create. PLEASE keep supporting your favorite artists! A hand made, one of a kind, original piece of work is just SO much more meaningful than a mass produced item. Supporting art and artists is one of the best ways to live a happier life, in my humble opinion!
That said, please come visit me and all the other fantastic artists at FAF in September and bring home your very own, one of a kind original work of art! Bring your friends and cousins....Make a day of it! St. Charles is an adorable town, lots to eat and do! Come one, come all!! You won't be sorry!
Coming soon to my blog.....GHOSTS!!!! And AFTER the show......Stuff for SALE!!
Tootles!
