Of course, like all good procrastinators I have waited until last minute to get ready. So much for being businesslike. Actually, it was not all my fault. I only got the notice for the show on Thursday of last week. I guess there was some sort of mail mix up.
The Arts Council was more than willing to let me join in last minute. All week I have been framing and matting and working on getting paintings ready to hang. I'm not sure what I'm going to hang them on, but we are working on that too. I bought a tent/awning thang. It is all coming together. The above photo shows you what my den looks like. It is getting better. The paintings are ready to hang. Then while I was cleaning up, I found three more paintings from my trip to NM last year when I painted with Jo. I may go ahead and mat and frame them too - while I'm in the work mode.
Now I'm need to fix my man some supper. A woman's work is never done.

Yahoo! Sounds like good fun work. Best of luck.
Drink plenty of water, it's hot and humid in Oklamexico.
Jo,
I tried to follow your advice from your email. It was helpful.
Fanboy,
I was prepared with my trusty fan and extension cord.
I was thinking it was more than a week away. I hope you got to talk to lots of folks. Did you take a photo of your booth? Shows are a lot of work but always/usually/sometimes lots of fun. I do think I like to talk as much as I like to paint!
Jo, I did enjoy the show. You're right about the talking-it's the best part. Well, there is the people watching too.
Good luck to you! Loving the craft of creating through ever-evolving mediums is what makes us prosper.
