I had forgotten how much was involved in getting ready for an Art show.  The last fair I did that included getting the tent all dressed up was the Ft Myers Ren Fest about 3 years ago.  Then I was partnering up in a booth and only selling my jewelry.  So I guess you can say that I am coming back from an artistic sabbatical and am ready to rejoin the circus.  I have a little less than two weeks until Florida Faerie Festival and it just dawned on me tonight that I might need to make a few price list signs, and I still have a list of other things that need to be made in order for my display to work right.  Mainly the drapery that goes on my grid walls.  Oh and the top of my costume, unless I want to go topless.  I think not.  This is a family event and I have already proven that I sunburn easily.   The weekend after FFF I will be in Orlando for Megacon.  I am wondering if I should even bother to unpack the car?

After February's Art of Central and the sun burn I got, yes folks you can get a really bad sunburn in February if you live in Florida, I went and got SPF 50 and a big sun hat.  Thank you Target for adding sunscreen to this weeks mobile coupon.  I wouldn't have remembered otherwise. 

I have been having a lot of fun painting little 5x7 flower creature paintings.  These cute little guys are available in my Etsy shop.  I will not be making prints of the flower creatures. These little paintings are one of a kind and come matted in an 8x10 mat so they are ready to be popped into a frame.  So far I have three that are available for $35 each so check them out. 

I had a lot of fun painting live at Art on Central last month, despite the sun burn.  I have decided that I will be bringing one or two paintings that I will work on at Florida Faerie Festival.  I also recently found out that due to the success of last months event the coordinators of the live painting event have decided to make it a monthly event.  I am making plans to attend in April as well.  

I hope to see you all at one or more of the events I have scheduled.  Stop by and say hello!!

I leave you with one of my favorite new Flower Creatures "Bird of Paradise II"
