What are the best things about art fairs

I love showing my work to different people and being able to talk to them about it.


Best show ever and why

Wide Open Bluegrass was the first show where I broke booth fee and sold original works of art.


Worst show ever and why

Live and Local Roots Fest in Raleigh, NC had almost no one show up to buy work, they just wanted to drink and haggle. We had one girl ask to buy a $40 mug for $25 and then (get this) asked for change for a 20. Never again

What is one fun fact about yourself?

I love storytelling in my painting. I also love to make ceramic sculpture and I enjoy homesteading and tea!
