The 20th Annual Studio Waltz came and went last Saturday on October 20th and was a great success here in North Pinellas County, FL! Friend and painter Barbara Kampe set up her plein air easel in my garden and sold paintings, and I sold prints from my booth with the assistance of Olivia Ferris. I nearly lost my voice more than once, talking about the process of etching and linocuts while giving a tour of my working studio.
We had cookies and cider and tea and my husband and neighbors all pitched in to help. It was the first cool-ish day of the year on Oct. 20th, which is to say, the first day that wasn't unbearably hot. The Waltz and the other 18 artists had a ton of competition because of all the events going on this past weekend, yet the crowds were steady and I had a great sales day. Thanks to all of you who stopped by, and keep an eye out for the 2013 edition!
