What are the best things about art fairs

Getting to demonstrate my passion and love for the type of art that I do and experiencing the positive responses of people.


Best show ever and why

The American Craft Council's Show in Atlanta, GA was my best show because the work of all the artists was top notch and I sold triple the amount of work there due to the high-end clientele attending.


Worst show ever and why

Juno Beach show by Howard Alan Events. Weather was not good and my work, which is not a "beach" motif was not a good fit for the festival. The clientele was not even remotely high-end so my work was gawked at for the price by people who could not appreciate the work that goes into it.
