This weekend was my first art fair in my hometown of Grosse Pointe, Michigan. I am not exaggerating when I say that I've spent the last half of the summer, locked inside my house preparing for this. Many pieces I created got thrown out or painted over, leaving only the paintings that am 100% in love with.
My philosophy has always been that if I don't sell anything, I would gladly hang each and every piece in my bedroom. Luckily, that is not the case! I sold a handful of favorites, as well as took several orders for commissioned work. I also was approached by a couple local businesses that want to hang my artwork in their stores!
It's amazing what sitting in your basement until 3 am most week nights (and several weekends) will accomplish. I truly couldn't have done it without the love and support of my family and friends and hopefully it's only up from here!
Below is a sample of the work that was featured this past weekend. And head on over to {my facebook page} to see the rest!
Oh the giraffe is so cute!
