Arts Festival

 Ridgefield is having an arts festival in Ballard Park yesterday and today.  There was a lot of good art, but attendance was down because of competing events and light rain.

I told Audrey she was born in the wrong century.  She paints dark realistic works that would appeal to Edgar Allen Poe.  Her frames are gold and ornate.  And she feeds a pair of black vultures.  Audrey has an amazing face.  When I asked to photograph her, she made a funny face that I captured.

Audrey smiles like a normal person most of the time.  (I felt obligated not to show only the first one.)




I suspect this young man is the son of the artist.  He was bored minding the tent, so he twirled constantly.

OK, they have nothing to do with the art.  I just liked the composition.

Art shows are always fun to wander through even if one does not purchase any art. Our big art festival is the week after the 4th of July.

Oh it all makes sense now, and these are the events we wait all year for, rain or shine, I will be there. Sorry for the conflicting other events too, sometimes they make the timing of them so a person can make more than one.
