My Experience at Bellevue Arts and Crafts Fair - Part#1

Today, I went to the Bellevue arts and craft fair. It was so much fun. I had ice cream and pizza for lunch. I met a lot of cool artists. I am going to share my experience meeting cool artists.

The first artist I met was Richard C. Harrington. He is an oil painter who likes to paint barns. He lives on the west side of New York. And his site is www.rcharrington.com and www.fieldnotesfrom100horsestudio.com.

The second artist I met was Patrick Howe. His work was just amazing. He is an oil painter. He likes to paint landscapes. He lives in Seattle. And his site is www.PatrickHowe.com . I am looking forward to taking some classes from him.

The third artist I met is Jeffrey Zigulis and he makes dream masks with clay, acrylics and electric wire. He lives in Camano Island, Wa. I like the bright color and shape of his masks. His web site is www.jeffzigulismasks.com .

The fourth artist is Dennis A Jonson.  He uses steel to create wind chimes. He spends his summer and spring in Colorado and his fall/winder in Florida. All his works were very innovative. I really want one in my backyard. His web site is www.erlundjohnsonstudios.com .

The fifth artist is Jana Grover. She is in her 60’s or 70’s. That is what I guessed.  She  started to paint 10 to 15 years ago. She is a phenomenal painter. I love the use of electronics and bright colors to share her experiences.  She lives in California and her web site is www.janagrover.com .

The sixth artist is Beth Eruland who has been a wild life artist for more than 30 years. She is an expert in batik style and uses many colors to enhance the details. She has written 3 children books. She makes  fantastic colorful animals. I bought a book from her and she personally signed it for me.

I really had fun meeting great artist and spending time with my family. I am looking forward to going next year.
