What an amazing organization. This group has it down when it comes to setting up and tearing down. It went smoothly and I was able to vist with some very interesting people. The long day on Saturday wore me down and sales were just not happening! The kids loved my heifer buttons, but I don't have much to send to Heifer as a result of this show. I was overly optomistic thinking I could reach my goal by Aug18th....I do have one more event that just popped up; so, I'm not givng up! It has been a great first year out on the event trail, and I have learned a lot. The main thing being that arts and craft shows are not the main place I need to be trying to sell my art work.
The drive up to Bellingham was beautiful! The colors this fall have been striking. I especially loved the birch trees along Fairhaven drive.
Let's see if the gallery type show later in the month is more of a success!!
Helen's Originals showcases abstract acrylic mixed media, printmaking with monotypes, dry point and gyotaku, figurative collage, and informative blog entries.
