What are the best things about art fairs

I enjoy the networking with other artists and connecting with fans of my work. Being available in person adds more depth to my work and validates me as an artisan.

looking toward local IL art shows for my traditional oil landscapes and wildlife art. 2023 just slowly getting back into it.


Best show ever and why

None recent, looking toward local IL art shows for my traditional oil landscapes and wildlife art. 2023 just slowly getting back into it.


Worst show ever and why

That would Metropolis convention in southern IL. Lots of fans of the comic genre, but none to interested in prints or originals. I think most were there for the costume contests. It also affected me deeply financially and I ceased going to shows by 2005.
