Grand Marais Art Fair

Yesterday had all the Grand Marais locals wandering around town in a sweaty daze, telling everyone they met "It really isn't like this.  It's never this hot."   Strangely windless and sticky on the shores of Lake Superior, but still beautiful.

My demo piece did not take nearly enough time.  I'm mostly done, and still have a whole day of art fair.

Hard to see, but here's the sketch.

Park Point Art Fair

It was a ridiculously gorgeous weekend on the shores of Lake Superior. 

This is five minutes before the fair officially opened.  Wow.

This was the Park Point Art Fair's forty-fifth year.  Holy crap, you guys.  No wonder it's easily the best run show I've participated in.

And as an extra surprising bonus, I won the Judge's Choice Award!  This is a large, well-curated show with stiff competition, and I am absolutely floored to have won.

And here's the demo piece I worked on for the duration of the fair.

I finished it at about 2pm on Sunday, which means,- allow me to math,- it took about 15 hours.
