Fur In The Paint

I know I said “see you all Monday!” And okay, so it’s clearly not Monday. I took an extra day returning from the artfair to go bumming around Des Moines and hit the Blank Park Zoo. It is a small zoo and being off season they had even less going on. But I enjoyed myself and frankly could have sat and watched the baby giraffe all day, (instead of like the 3 hours that I actually did. Alas hubby gets a littly fidgety after like 2 1/2 hours on baby giraffe watch.) I’ve been wanting to do a new giraffe piece but the well was empty, so I really needed some new photos.

The artfair was good and the weather gorgeous. Sales were down from last year. But last year was better than usual. I’ll blog more on the event tomorrow.

I just can’t seem to catch up. The gallery is crazy busy which always bugs me after an artshow. Since I take so much work with me the place looks like it’s been robbed. We leave for one more event this weekend so I am not feeling like putting it all back together to tear it apart and pack it in two days. After this one I get a break again. Good thing too, because I need to get Colton’s potrait done. Whew!
