First show ever
Did craft fairs at first, went to art school, honed my art then started "art" fairs...
What are the best things about art fairs
Gives artist the chance to show/sell their art, get a following for future.
Best show ever and why
Central West End, St.Louis, MO. Great day, great people, sold quite a bit.
Worst show ever and why
Show in Belleville, IL at a big place called Belleclaire, shoppers were artists/crafter's, would look at my art walk away, sketch my art so as to make it themselves. Did not make much money.
Who referred you to ArtFairInsiders.com? Please be specific.
I am studio assistant for former art professor, we used to subscribe to your magazine to find shows, fairs, info.
What is one fun fact about yourself?
"I know stuff". I love to research for myself & give others info too. My sister used to say I was a know-it-all, but meant it as I know a lot of stuff. We used to laugh at that & now it's just a common chuckle for me & my friends.
