"So, How'd it Go?"

1.) I met some wonderful fellow artists,

2.) Had a thorough art show experience,

3.) Got to spend some time with my awesome friend & coworker Bryan,

4.) Really enjoyed the compliments I got from the children especially- totally made it worth the effort,

5.) Now have permission from several professional photographers to use their photos as references-I am very thankful, and

6.) Finished a new painting while there.

Oh, and

7.) As a complete bonus, I was approached by two talented artists that asked to trade with me; had I made any money, I would've spent it on a few beautiful pieces of work anyhow, so it worked out very well indeed.
