Fall Festival Review….
2 days in the shade, lot's of compressed air, screenprints a flowing, our artwork on display, a whole bunch of people and a great time had by all. I didn't get to see that much of the festival myself but I did a lot of airbrushing and talking to people that stopped by our booth ( that's Kevin Corcoran and I ).I'd like to personally thank everyone we met for hanging out with us and for all the positive feedback that you gave on the artwork. It was a great experience. The following is a list of 7 things I learned over the weekend at the Fall Festival in Huntington….

- 3. You can pack a lot of stuff into the back of a pickup truck....Here's Kevin with our best "Pack your truck like Sanford and Son" rendition. This is what the truck looked like on our way to set up the festival on the first day. I promise that by the end of the second day we had packing that truck down to a science. There are no pictures to support this so you'll just have to take my word on that....

- 5. People will ask you to paint them some interesting things.....On this particular occasion I was asked to bring someone's vision to life for them. She called it "The 4 Elements." Jenna talked me through her vision while I painted. It was awesome to be able to bring her vision to life and she really loved it which was the icing on the cake. Thanks Jenna for trusting me with your vision and for snapping some great shots of the shirt in progress.....

- 6. Screen Printing's cool.....Kevin and I made our first successful efforts towards making screen prints and I intend to exercise my right as an artist to explore it in many forms from here on out......more on that soon....Here's the first screen print Kevin and I made. Can you say lot's of t-shirt designs coming real soon boys and girls?

- 7. And finally I leave you with this........I learned that Anything you do that makes a child happy, ( even something as simple as airbrushing their name on a t-shirt ) is worth more money than the world has to offer. There were numerous children that I had the honor of painting for over the weekend and each one of them brought a little bit of beauty to the day. The joy it brought to their faces to have something special made just for them was nothing short of PRICELESS. I can't wait to do it again. Viva la festival........
