Thank You

It was a great show!
This is a picture of my "Lucky Walnut Shop" in the Emerging Artist Section

         Thank you for coming to the Mt. Gretna Outdoor Art Show last weekend!!
Mt. Gretna is a very small, beautiful, and cozy place.  They filled the streets, grass, and basically every 'flat' area with artists selling their artwork.  Sunday was a little rainy, but other than that it was beautiful.   If you couldn't come this time mark your calendars for next year.  It is a great place to check out artwork from all other the country.  It is also a good opportunity for up and coming artists to sell their artwork!  Thanks again to all my friends and family for coming and supporting myself and all the other artist there.  

I might be participating in another art show in October and I will announce the date and location as soon as I find out if I've been accepted!  Stay turned :)
