First show ever
Brookings, SD Art in the Park JULY 2013
What are the best things about art fairs
Mixing with the people and meeting fellow artists
Best show ever and why
I've only done two: Brookings, SD Art in the Park JULY 2013 Lakeville, MN Art Festival SEPT 2013 I received Best Emerging Artist Best of Show and in the other shared the Award of Excellence. So, I'd have to say they were both very good however, Brookings was much larger and Lakeville treated the artist like royalty.
Worst show ever and why
NA

What is one fun fact about yourself?
Majored in art at the University of South Dakota, left school with only one semester remaining to join the Marine Corps. I was on active duty for 22 years before being medically retired in 1992. I went to graduate school at New Mexico State University. Moved to Sturgis, SD to teach High School for 9 years. Moved to Minnesota to be around my children and grand babies. My oldest grand child "Izzy" liked robots so I made her a couple which rekindled my interest in art. "Full Circle" :)
