Indie Art Fair

Josh and I were able to get away for a night. It was because I was going to be doing an art show in Petaluma, and we didn't want to have to travel so early in the morning. All of the hotels were sold out because of a drag racing event...and this was the last place we found a room. Called the METRO, it was so cute and quirky. It is a 140 year old farmhouse, restored with a modern french style. Everything was Paris themed, which I told Josh was a sign we should still try to move to France for two years.



We went and got ice cream, and then went to this HUGE candy store which had everything from Razzles to any kind of Pezz dispenser you could imagine. We seriously thought about going to see Batman, but I was worried about being tired the next day.


We got Kadie a Kung Fu Panda Pezz dispenser, and Laney a Shrek one. I still wish I would have got some Razzles.







Despite the fact that I did so well at my art show earlier this month, this one was a BOMB. I should have known better, since it was and "Indie" art fair, at a Phoenix theater, set up with the name Running with Scissors, and it was the first year.

Here was my set up:

To say the least...I didn't fit in. AT ALL! This is what other people were selling.

Notice the Lovely graffiti on the walls. What you don't see are the scuzzy couches and chair all ripped up and graffitied on as well all over the room. I totally forgot my pacifier and a black light. If you can see, the table is sort of a "day of the dead" type of skull that were all painted in fluorescent colors.

This was a lovely lady I met who went by the nickname of Mrs. Evils. Her craft was re-inventing the barbie doll as a "My little Zombie" doll for collection. I think she has a myspace page if any of you are interested for Christmas or birthday presents.
