The Art Festival ended last night, and I slept in today! I had a really great time and sold tons! It was sad to see my friends (my paintings) go, but I love that someone else liked them enough to spend their cash. The most frequent words of praise I heard from folks were “Color” and “Happy”. And I’m sooooo okay with that. I have an old friend who gets this blog in her email, and she made the trip to see me yesterday at the festival! Hi, Cara!! It was great to chat with you there! We’ll have to do that again—over coffee!

Anyways, I have a book to finish this week, so I’ll be writing like a demon. Be sure to check out the open contests below and enter them before they close!
